More rain?
6/16/09 8:20am
Will today be the last day of rain? Might be. We have a good chance for showers and thunderstorms today, although coverage should be less than the last few days. Hard to believe but we are now at three and a half weeks of rain almost everyday. Pretty amazing. There are some in the weather industry that are correlating the rains of this June to the early development of what could be a strong el Nino. Hmmmmm.
West Coast ridge starts to develop Wednesday which will allow for skies to clear and temps to get back to normal. Expect temps to warm each day to near 80F by Friday in Truckee. There is still a slight chance of a thunderstorm Wed/Thurs, but coverage will be isolated. Weekend is looking good with a slight chance of thunderstorms Sunday afternoon as another trough develops and starts to effect the region for early next week.
In case you are interested, it is snowing at Mammoth Mt. this morning. Temp at the summit is 30F and via web cams you can see accumulating snow above mid mountain. They turned the lifts off this past Sunday 6/14.
Looking forward to next winter, the Pacific Ocean is warming.....possible el Nino developing????? The hype is starting.......
