WILL HERYFORD SKYCAM AND METEOROLOGIST HEATHER WALDMAN. IT’S NICE TO SEE A LITTLE BLUE. YEAH, JUST IN TIME FOR THE SUN TO GO DOWN OVER STOCKTON. GETTING ABOUT 45 MINUTES OF BLUE SKY. I THINK TOMORROW IS GOING TO EVOLVE KIND OF IN THE SAME WAY WHERE WE START WITH THE DENSE FOG, WE GET THE LOW CLOUDS FOR MOST OF THE DAY AND MAYBE A PEEK OF SUNSHINE IN THE LATE AFTERNOON. THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE FROM THE SUTTER BUTTES. THIS WAS OUR VALLEY FOG. IT LIFTED THROUGHOUT THE DAY. WE’LL SEE MORE OF THAT TOMORROW. VISIBILITY JUST FINE THROUGH THE VALLEY, THE FOOTHILLS AND THE SIERRA RIGHT NOW. ONCE WE GET PAST MIDNIGHT TONIGHT, WE’LL START TO SEE PARTS OF THE SAN JOAQUIN AND SACRAMENTO VALLEY. SEE SOME OF THAT FOG SETTLE BACK IN. BUT YOU CAN SEE IT ERASING AWAY FROM NORTH TO SOUTH. A LITTLE BIT OF A NORTH BREEZE HAS KICKED IN. THAT’S HELPING TO DRY THE AIR OUT A LITTLE BIT. IT BROUGHT OUT THE SUNSHINE FIRST IN SUTTER AND YUBA COUNTY, THEN FOR SACRAMENTO COUNTY. AND NOW JUST STARTING TO SEE THAT BLUE SKY FOR A LITTLE BIT OVER THE SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY AREA. HERE IS THAT NORTH BREEZE. IT’S LIGHT. MAYBE YOU NOTICED IT, MAYBE YOU DIDN’T. BUT AGAIN, IT IS KIND OF MAKING THINGS A LITTLE BIT CLEARER THIS AFTERNOON. OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. YES. MORE FOG WEDNESDAY MORNING THURSDAY MORNING, PROBABLY FRIDAY MORNING AS WELL. ALL THREE DAYS. THAT FOG WILL BE WIDESPREAD BETWEEN ABOUT 4 A.M. AND 8 OR 9 A.M. ONCE WE GET PAST 9 A.M., THE VISIBILITY WILL GET BETTER, BUT WE’RE STILL GOING TO BE STUCK WITH A FEW MORE HOURS OF THAT LOW CLOUD COVER. KIND OF A GLOOMY FEEL FOR THE VALLEY FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS, THINGS WILL CHANGE UP THIS WEEKEND. WE’LL GET RID OF THE FOG, BUT WE’RE BRINGING BACK SOME SHOWER CHANCES. YOU’RE GOING TO HAVE A LOT OF DRY TIME BOTH SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. IN FACT, THE FORECAST IS TRENDING DRIER FOR BOTH SATURDAY AND ESPECIALLY FOR SUNDAY. BUT NEXT WEEK IS STILL LOOKING WETTER. I WANT TO SHOW YOU HOW THINGS HAVE EVOLVED HERE. THIS IS FRIDAY. FRIDAY IS A DRY DAY. WE’LL START TO GET A LITTLE BIT MORE OF A SOUTHWESTERLY BREEZE WITH SOME SCATTERED CLOUDS. SATURDAY, SOME SCATTERED RAIN SHOWERS IN THE AFTERNOON, A LITTLE BIT OF HIGH ELEVATION SNOW, MAYBE JUST ENOUGH FOR SOME SLUSH AT DONNER SUMMIT. WE’LL KEEP AN EYE ON THAT FOR YOU AS WE GET A LITTLE BIT CLOSER. SUNDAY ON THIS MODEL NOW LOOKS DRY, AT LEAST LOCALLY. BETTER RAIN CHANCES. FARTHER TO THE NORTH. THERE ARE OTHER MODELS THAT ARE STILL KEEPING SHOWER CHANCES IN FOR SACRAMENTO. SAME THING GOES FOR MONDAY. BUT IF YOU LOOK OFF THE COAST STORM SYSTEM STARTING TO BUILD NOW, IT LOOKS LIKE IT WILL MOVE IN LATER MONDAY INTO TUESDAY. SO EARLY NEXT WEEK. STILL A TIME PERIOD TO WATCH, ESPECIALLY AS WE GET CLOSER TO CHRISTMAS DAY NEXT WEDNESDAY. AS FOR THE SIERRA, SOME SCATTERED CLOUDS TOMORROW, MAYBE SOME POCKETS OF FREEZING FOG FIRST THING IN THE MORNING AROUND THE TRUCKEE VALLEY. OTHERWISE VISIBILITY SHOULD BE FINE. IN THE FOOTHILLS, A MIX OF CLOUDS AND SUNSHINE. TEMPERATURES STARTING IN THE LOW 40S FOOTHILLS MAY ACTUALLY END UP WARMER THAN THE VALLEY JUST BECAUSE OF THAT VALLEY. FOG WILL KEEP THE TEMPERATURES A LITTLE BIT LOWER. NOT AS MUCH FOG FROM LAKEPORT TO SAN FRANCISCO AND SAN JOSE, BUT FAIRFIELD WILL START THE DAY WITH A COUPLE OF HOURS OF SOME SUPER AIR. THE SAN JOAQUIN VALLEY WILL STAY CLOUDIEST THE LONGEST. EXPECT LOW VISIBILITY UNTIL ABOUT 9 OR 10 A.M., THEN IMPROVEMENTS AFTER THAT WITH AN HOUR OR TWO OF SOME BLUE SKY IN THE LATE AFTERNOON FOR THE SACRAMENTO VALLEY. MUCH LIKE WHAT WE SAW TODAY. OVERCAST WITH SOME FOG IN THE MORNING, BRIGHTER INTO THE AFTERNOON, WE REPEAT THAT FOR THURSDAY. FOR FRIDAY. SATURDAY WE SEE THE SHOWERS IN THE AFTERNOON. IF YOU GOT TO DO SOME SHOPPING, ANY OTHER KIND OF HOLIDAY ACTIVITIES? MORNING LOOKS DRIER, BUT EVEN THE AFTERNOON NOT SOA
