Storm Watch, 1/30/10

Received almost 1/2 inch last night, bringing the season’s total to 41.35 inches.

NOAA discussion: “AS OF 3:45 AM PST SATURDAY…UNSETTLED WEATHER IS IN STORE FOR THE UPCOMING WORK WEEK….WITH THE BEST CHANCE OF SIGNIFICANT RAIN LATE IN THE WEEK AND INTO THE FOLLOWING WEEKEND….A SERIES OF SPLITTING SYSTEMS WILL BRING A CHANCE OF RAIN TO THE DISTRICT MONDAY AND TUESDAY….BY THURSDAY AFTN AND INTO THE FOLLOWING WEEKEND A MUCH BETTER ORGANIZED AND STRONGER SYSTEM WILL BEGIN TO AFFECT THE DISTRICT. RAIN IS LIKELY DURING THIS PERIOD….THIS IS STILL FIVE TO SEVEN DAYS AWAY SO THE DETAILS COULD CHANGE BY MID WEEK. REGARDLESS…IF HEAVY RAIN DOES DEVELOP THERE COULD BE CONSIDERABLE HYDRO ISSUES BY THE END OF NEXT WEEK. STAY TUNED.”
