The only change in the weather scene is, forecast models show the strong ridge of high pressure weakening about midweek. This will allow several weather systems to move our way with periods of rain and mountain snow at the highest elevations, say 6,000 feet or so. It won’t be enough to affect the nearly nonexistent snow pack that we are still hanging onto.
So, right now it looks like: high clouds Tuesday, showers Wednesday and Thursday, dry Friday, rain Saturday. Of course we will see just how strong these storms are when they get here. But forecast charts indicate about ½ to 1 inch of rain for the week.
I think that will be difficult to take, don’t you? I mean, we have become accustomed to day after day of sunny and dry weather. Spoiled, I guess.
Hardly any rain in the bucket for the first seven days of the month — 0.01 of an inch March 2, three-quarters of an inch below average.
