The Jet Stream is swinging the air in from the west and then the southwest which will increase the moisture that’s headed our way. A frontal system pushed through the Pacific Northwest cooling us down and bringing at least a slight chance of precipitation. The Autumnal Equinox which begins the Fall or Autumn season occurs at 1:21 AM Wednesday. You may see it published on calendars etc. that it is actually on Tuesday, but that would be because they are using Eastern Daylight Time which is 2 hours earlier than the our Pacific Time Zone. Another in a series of frontal systems will move in by the end of the week.
