Rob, you often tweet about things like that. Candy and fruit cups. Christmas in february, not a bad thing. Or spring in february right now. No kidding. Its been beautiful. They love it. The weather is nice for the outdoor plans and the big story is how dry its been and continues to be so far this month were missing out on rainfall and in terms of plans, the weather is quite kind. We have 63 degreesn san jaos n about an hour or so and in san to 15 Miles Per Hour and in sith the wind at close terms of rainfall, average to date, heres the problem with the dry february. These losses just keep accelerating anywhere from 20 of average for the rainfall to 66 of average in santa rosa. In just this month alone weve had a fifth of an inch of rain per day. In february you have a dry spell like this those losses can accelerate. Take whats happening with the sierra snow pack. About 58 of average compared to the same time last year it was an outstanding snow pack last year where we had totals of 141 of average last february the 14th and quite a change, anywhere from nine inches of total snow pack depth so far this year. Last year at this time more than 40 inches. Thats a big deal. We havent had a lot of rain and not a lot of snow and heres the reason why. Strong High Pressure almost most typical of may where it builds up to the north of hawaii sends storms to the north and thats the part thats not going away for a while and probably some more for sunday and notice the rain showers staying too far to the north around the bay area and what well probably see more of will be wind picking up at times for the hills for tomorrow night on to tomorrow morning and we finish this afternoon with upper 50s to mid50s for highs and yes, the winds not too bad tomorrow, but by tomorrow night as we go into monday see how the north and east bay hills begin to see the gusts 30 to 40 Miles Per Hour and watch that closely. Thats setting up as we head into monday and notice no rain chances here for thursday and maybe a few showers near the coast and thats about it. Maybe our best chance for showers could come by perhaps next weekend, but youll notice that is an inland tracking weather system that even between now and february 25th it doesnt look like well see much in the way of rain chances. Instead, monitoring wind at times and by tomorrow night h d heading into monday where everyone is knocked by winds at 20 to 40 Miles Per Hour and maybe another chance of more wind for next weekend. Temperatures, though will start to climb. We could be approaching 70 again tuesday and wednesday. It would be nice if it just wasnt happening in february. You can see from the rain deficits and the snow pack the issues were seeing now. Now were rooting for march. Thanks a lot. An olympicstyle dress rehearsal today.
