Discussion. As of 03:48am PDT Wednesday… rain showers are currently spreading inland across much of the region this morning as a negatively tilted mid/upper level trough approaches the coast. Rainfall during the past 6 hours has been greatest over the Santa Cruz Mountains and along the Santa Lucia Range with 0.50" to 1.00" reported. Elsewhere, rainfall amounts range from a few hundredths of an inch to around 0.25". Expecting showers to spread northward through the remainder of the morning before tapering off through the afternoon. While isolated showers may linger into the late afternoon and evening, most areas will see mainly dry conditions. A secondary short-wave disturbance forecast to approach the coast late tonight into Thursday will produce rain showers mainly offshore and over portions of the Central Coast while most areas will remain dry through Thursday night. ∨

AS A NEGATIVELY TILTED MID/UPPER LEVEL TROUGH APPROACHES THE
COAST. RAINFALL DURING THE PAST 6 HOURS HAS BEEN GREATEST OVER THE
SANTA CRUZ MOUNTAINS AND ALONG THE SANTA LUCIA RANGE WITH 0.50"
TO 1.00" REPORTED. ELSEWHERE, RAINFALL AMOUNTS RANGE FROM A FEW

Another quick moving system will push a frontal boundary through the region on Friday with light rain spreading from north to south. Showers will then linger into Friday night before tapering off Saturday morning. This will result in mainly dry conditions through the first half of Sunday along with slightly warmer daytime temperatures. ∨

Medium range forecast models and ensemble members continue to suggest a return to unsettled weather conditions during the first half of next week. However, confidence remains low on the details with respect to when, where and how much precipitation to expect. Overall, look for periods of wet weather early next week with the potential for more widespread rainfall and seasonably cool temperatures. ∨

An amplifying and negatively tilted 500 mb height trough is approx 100 miles southwest of Monterey County and moving north and will sweep over the area through the evening and overnight. NAM [North American Meso (formerly Eta) model] model shows fairly rapid cold air advection, near 7°C cooling at 925 mb and 850 mb levels and thermal troughing embedded with the 500 mb height trough indicating this trough has a fair amount of dynamics and lift with it; expect rapidly changing weather conditions through the evening into the overnight hours. No lightning seen yet in our CWA [County Warning Area; see the LWP home page (link at bottom of page) for a CWA map], but there's a slight chance of thunderstorms mainly late tonight into Wednesday morning. ∨
