Enjoy the day — looks like the only sunshine we’ll have all week!

This is what NOAA has to say: “AS OF 4:00 AM THURSDAY…TODAY WILL MARK THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM WITH RAINY WEATHER ON TRACK FOR FRIDAY. SHOWERY SATURDAY WITH DRY WEATHER SUNDAY INTO MONDAY. …
COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ONSHORE DURING THE DAY FRIDAY AND EXPECT ABOUT A 6 HOUR WINDOW OF MODERATE AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN AS THE FRONT PASSES THROUGH THE BAY AREA AND NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. PERIOD OF HEAVIEST PRECIP ROUGHLY TO OCCUR FROM 18Z FRIDAY THROUGH 00Z SATURDAY…SUGGESTING A MESSY FRIDAY AFTERNOON COMMUTE. [subtract 8 hours for PDT to zulu, i.e. 1800=10:00 am; 00Z=4:00 pm] …
MODELS HAVE BEEN IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT FOR ANOTHER LIGHT RAIN CHANCE BY NEXT TUESDAY AS ANOTHER COLD UPPER LOW APPROACHES THE CAPE MENDOCINO REGION. LINGERING SHOWERS WEDS WITH DRY WEATHER THURSDAY. PRETTY GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT FOR THIS FAR OUT IN BRINGING ANOTHER COLD AND WET TROUGH ON SHORE BY NEXT FRIDAY.”

And one weather report last night says March is looking to be a repeat, with many storms setting up for next month. Joy. Just think of the happy wildflowers, water tables, and reservoirs!
