<\/p>\nMorning fog Saturday then gusty winds develop clearing clouds temporarily. Fog returns by Sunday then tracking possible showers next week.<\/p>\n
SACRAMENTO, Calif \u2014 A chance in the weather pattern coming this weekend, but it still starts with morning fog.<\/p>\n
Winds will increase early Saturday morning through the day. This will help erode the valley fog that has plagued much of the work week keeping afternoon highs chilly through much of the week. Some areas struggled to make it out of the 40s on Friday due to the persistent low clouds.<\/p>\n
The wind shift will certainly help to minimize the coverage and duration of the fog on Saturday. Areas that are slow to see wind increase, like the Southern Sacramento Valley, Delta and Northern San Joaquin Valley, will still have limited visibility on Saturday morning. Those conditions improve before noon s winds kick up and help dry out skies and reduce low cloudiness.<\/p>\n
Mostly sunny skies are expected for much of the afternoon which will help drive up temperatures back to near and even above normal to start the weekend.<\/p>\n
This will be a short lived but impactful weather shift giving many valley residents a break from the grey skies. If you are heading to the Sierra prepare for gusty winds on Saturday. This could impact some ski resorts.<\/p>\n
Winds start to calm overnight though with the return to patchy low clouds once again to end the weekend plus increasing midday clouds from a system pulling in from the Pacific.<\/p>\n
\n <\/p>\n
It’s been over 16 days since we’ve seen rain. The average winter dry stretch of at least 15 days lasts for 25 days. The longest such dry stretch since 1990 was Dec 2021-March 2022 and lasted for 75 days!<\/p>\n
There’s a slight chance of showers brushing through quickly next Wednesday but the long range outlook is still favoring a likely warmer and drier outlook through the beginning of February. The state is still largely dominated by high pressure although some weak systems will be moving through next week with that chance of showers and occasional clouds.<\/p>\n
