Happy Thursday, Kern County. A storm is passing through central California today, and we’re anticipating strong winds, fog, and light precipitation. <\/p>\n
Fog formed over the Tehachapi pass, and the Tehachapi Unified School District has a 2 hour fog delay. <\/p>\n
Mountain and desert neighborhoods remain under wind alerts through 8:00 p.m. Thursday. Gusts as high as 50 mph are possible, especially in the early half of the day. Winds will make temperatures feel cooler, so bundle up in the mountains. <\/p>\n
Wind chills as low as 20 degrees were observed in the Tehachapi area Thursday morning. <\/p>\n
Now, let’s talk rain and snow. A winter weather advisory was issued last night for Tehachapi, Lebec and the Tejon Pass on the I-5. Gusty winds coupled with the chance for mixing rain and snow on Thursday morning could make for slick roadways and poor visibility. A dusting of snow is possible along our mountain passes, so again, drive with caution. <\/p>\n
Passing light showers are also possible in the valley, so give yourself extra time while traveling this morning. <\/p>\n
The best chance for passing rain and snow showers is Thursday morning. Conditions begin to calm through the afternoon and evening. <\/p>\n
After today, our focus shifts to fog. High pressure builds back in this weekend which brings fog chances back into the valley forecast. <\/p>\n
