Thursday was another rainy day across Kern County.<\/p>\n
Bakersfield had picked up 0.23″ of rain by 5 PM, putting us up to 2.13″ for the month of November.<\/p>\n
This is only the third time on record that Bakersfield has gotten 2″ of rain in November, and the first time since 1960.<\/p>\n
More rain is expected Friday, too, but most of that will fall in eastern Kern.<\/p>\n
Valley areas could pick up a few showers early, but it’s likely that our mountain and desert areas will see a push of steady rain late Thursday night into Friday morning as moisture wraps around the back side of this latest storm system.<\/p>\n
That means rain totals in eastern Kern will be higher than originally expected, with an additional 0.50″ to 1.00″ possible overnight and into Friday.<\/p>\n
We also expect some snow to fall Thursday night into Friday.<\/p>\n
A few snowflakes may mix in with rain as low as 4,000 feet along the Grapevine and Highway 58, but no accumulation is expected.<\/p>\n
Accumulating snow is expected above 5,000 feet, though, with 2″ to 4″ possible.<\/p>\n
The highest points in Kern could pick up half a foot of new snow through Friday.<\/p>\n
Rain and snow will clear out into Friday evening, and dry weather is expected for the weekend.<\/p>\n
With the clearing skies we will be watching for fog formation in the Valley starting this weekend, and lingering into early next week.<\/p>\n
