Weather Discussion; The Old Forecaster

Chris Fontana, "The Old Forecaster" 2/22/2012



Today will be mostly sunny with a few mid and high clouds and temperatures warmer than yesterday.  Clouds will increase a little this afternoon as the southern end of the storm moving into the Pacific Northwest brushes the north end of the state.
Gusty north winds are expected today and Thursday.  Temperatures Thursday and Friday will be 8 to 12 degrees above normal with the north valley in the low to mid 70s and the foothills and mid elevations in the upper 50s to mid 60s.
The weather pattern will change on the weekend as the high pressure area that is currently along the coast moves back to the west.  This will allow storms to drop southward from Alaska into the western U.S.

January brought considerably more precipitation to the Lake Almanor Basin than we received in December, but the amount was still well below average.

The monitoring site at Prattville recorded 4.52 inches of total precipitation during the month, bringing our season total to 8.12 inches or 43 percent of average. By way of comparison, last year at this time we had accumulated over 20 inches of total precipitation.
