...WARMER AND GENERALLY DRY THIS WEEK...

.METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS (TUE AM - MON AM)...

High pressure off the west coast and nudging into the region with
northwesterly flow aloft as trough digs down into Pac NW and Nrn
Rockies from Canada the next few days. This will bring dry and warm
conditions. Temperatures generally near normal to 10 degrees above
normal through Thursday. A weak disturbance (GFS stronger than EC)
moves through Central/Srn CA and Srn NV on Friday that may bring
some cumulus buildups and possibly isolated showers along the Srn
Sierra in the afternoon/early evening. Ridge of high pressure shifts
over the region over the weekend bringing max temperatures around
normal to 15 degrees above normal except up to 10 degrees below
along the NW CA coast on Saturday as the tail end of a cold front
swinging into B.C./WA may brush by far NW CA coast.
