ORGANIZATION. HE WAS PRESIDENT OF THE SACRAMENTO CHAPTER BUT HAS
SINCE RESIGNED.
ROB HOUSE TODAY LEFT?
>> YEAH, I IT'S NOT GOING TO BE
A WINDY DAY.
IT'S GOING TO BE A NICE RELAXED
EASY DAY HERE IN NORTHERN
CALIFORNIA.
THE MAJOR WIND ISSUES WERE
STILL HERE YESTERDAY
MORNING AND STARTED TO MIGRATE
TO THE SOUTH WITH MAJOR
OUTAGES, LOTS OF DAMAGE IN
YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK AND
CERTAINLY FOR SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA.
AND WE'RE LEFT HIGH AND DRY
HERE WITH HIGH PRESSURE RIGHT
ON TOP OF US.
NOW THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT
WE'RE GONNA HAVE ANY LACK
OF WEATHER TO COME OUR WAY.
IN FACT, THIS HIGH'S ONLY GOING
TO BE HERE FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS
AND ONCE IT MOVES ON WE'RE IN
FOR SOME REALLY BIG CHANGES AND
SOME EXCITING CHANGES,
ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE A FAN
OF LOW SNOWFALL.
BECAUSE WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN
ON MONDAY COULD BE A REALLY
BIG DEAL.
BUT LET'S GET THROUGH TODAY.
THERE'S THIS AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE.
SO BASICALLY THE TROUGH
BOTTOMED OUT.
WE'RE DOWN WITH THE WIND FOR
BASICALLY ALL OF CALIFORNIA AND
THEY'VE GOT SOME RAIN IN THE IN
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AT THE
MOMENT.
IT'S NOT MAJOR BUT IT IS
CERTAINLY GOING TO HELP WITH
THE NUMBER OF WILDFIRES THAT
POPPED UP JUST YESTERDAY
AFTERNOON IN JANUARY.
OF ALL PLACES WHAT WE'RE GONNA
BE EXPERIENCING FOR HERE IS
GOING TO BE NICE, DRY AND MILD
CONDITIONS.
IT'S STILL ODDLY WARM FOR THIS
TIME OF YEAR.
WE SHOULD BE LOOKING AT HIGHS
IN THE 50S BUT INSTEAD OF THAT
WE'RE GONNA BE LOOKING AT HIGHS
IN THE 60S BUT GRADUALLY MOVING
TOWARD NORMAL WEATHER BY THE
TIME WE GET TO THE END OF THIS
WEEK AND GOING INTO THIS
WEEKEND.
AS FAR AS THE WIND, YES, WE
STILL HAVE A LITTLE WIND BUT
THIS IS VERY MANAGEABLE.
FORGET ABOUT STRONG DAMAGING
WIND.
THAT'S OVER FOR THE NEXT COUPLE
OF DAYS AT LEAST.
WE'RE GONNA BE LOOKING AT A
NICE QUIET CONDITIONS NOT ONLY
THIS MORNING BUT INTO THE
AFTERNOON.
AND BY THE WAY, IT WAS
EVERYWHERE WE GOT SO MANY
PHOTOS WE WANT TO THANK YOU SO
MUCH.
THIS IS ELK GROVE.
THOSE PALM TREES ARE HAVING A
TOUGH TIME.
DOWNLOAD THE ABC 10 APP AND
THEN YOU CAN UPLOAD THE PHOTO.
WE'VE GOT RADAR WHICH IS GONNA
BE REALLY HELPFUL ON FRIDAY AND
CERTAINLY NEXT WEEK AND ALSO
ANY UPDATES IN THE FORECAST
THAT I BRING YOU ON TV GOES
RIGHT TO THE APP AS WELL.
SO IF NOT WATCHING TV BUT YOU
NEED TO CHECK ON THE WEATHER.
IT'S ON THE APP.
HEY, CHECK THIS OUT.
TEMPERATURES HAVE DROPPED OFF A
LOT OVER THE LAST COUPLE
OF DAYS.
IF YOU REMEMBER WE STARTED OFF
ON MONDAY WITH REALLY WARM
TEMPERATURES IN THE 60S IN THE
MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT.
THAT'S ALL OVER WITH NOW.
WE'RE STARTING OFF WITH THE 40S
AND WE NEED TO GET BACK TOWARD
A NORMAL WEATHER PATTERN
BECAUSE IF 20 20 ARE GOING INTO
20 TWENTY ONE FOR A RAINY
SEASON IF WE KNOW ANYTHING
ABOUT IT, IT'S NOT ONLY BEEN
WARM, IT'S BEEN REALLY DRY.
WE'RE DOWN FOUR INCHES TALKED
IN MODESTO SIX FOR SACRAMENTO
13 ALMOST 14 INCHES FOR SHASTA.
SO NOT ONLY DO WE NEED RAIN AND
SNOW, WE NEED BIG RAIN SNOW.
WE NEED A MAJOR, MAJOR PATTERN
SHIFT AND WE NEED IT TO SUSTAIN
ITSELF FOR THE REST OF THE
RAINY SEASON.
AND THAT IS A TOUGH CALL TO
MAKE.
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING AT ARE
GROWING DROUGHT CONDITIONS AND
JUST WE NEED TO GET BACK GROOVE
.
NOW TODAY WE'RE NOT ADDING RAIN
OR SNOW TO THE FORECAST.
IT'S GONNA BE A NICE MILD DAY
IF YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT THE
WIND.
IT'S NOT GOING TO BE COMING
BACK FOR A WHILE.
IN FACT, WE'RE GONNA HAVE NICE
CALM CONDITIONS NOT ONLY TODAY
BUT FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS
WHEN WE'LL START TO APPROACH
ONCE WE GET INTO NEW WET
PATTERN BY FRIDAY AND WE'RE
GOING TO SEE MOMENTS OF WIND
BUT THEY'RE ALL CONNECTED TO
STORMS.
SO THERE'S A BENEFIT TO THE
WIND UNLIKE THE LAST COUPLE
OF DAYS, NO BENEFIT AT ALL.
SO LET'S FAST FORWARD TO THE
NEXT SYSTEM IN THE PIPELINE.
THIS IS NOT A BIG ONE.
THIS IS GOING TO BE A TENTH
OF AN INCH OF RAIN OR LESS.
BUT IT COMES IN FRIDAY DURING
THE DAY.
THIS DOES INCLUDE RIGHT AROUND
FOUR TO SIX INCHES OF PAST
LEVEL SNOW.
AND THAT'S IMPORTANT.
I MEAN CHAIN CONTROLS ON A
FRIDAY WHICH IS ALWAYS
IMPORTANT BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE
WILL BE HEADING INTO THE
MOUNTAINS ON FRIDAY AND YOU ARE
LOOKING AT DELAYS, LONG TRAVEL
TIMES AND ALSO CHAIN CONTROLS.
SO HEADS UP FOR FRIDAY THE
BITTERN.
THE MAIN THING THOUGH ABOUT
FRIDAY SYSTEM IS THAT IT OPENS
THINGS UP AND THIS NEXT ONE ON
MONDAY WHILE IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S
GOING TO BE A MASSIVE AMOUNT
OF RAIN AND SNOW, IT'LL BE
DECENT MAYBE HALF AN INCH TO AN
INCH OF VALLEY RAIN AND A FOOT
OR MORE OF SIERRA SNOW.
SO IN ITS OWN RIGHT THERE'S A
LOT OF MOISTURE WITH THIS.
BUT THE MAIN THING WITH THE
MONDAY SYSTEM IS LOOK HOW LOW
THE SNOW LEVEL IS JUST SO YOU
HAVE SOME COMPARISON THE WIDER
THIS BAND IS THAT MEANS THE
LOWER IT GOES.
WE COULD BE LOOKING AT SNOW
LEVELS ON MONDAY MORNING DOWN
TO A THOUSAND FEET OR LOWER.
THAT MEANS ORDERD.
THAT MEANS PLACERVILLE GRASS
VALLEY, NEVADA CITY, SINORA
COULD BE LOOKING AT SOME VERY
EARLY MORNING SNOW ON MONDAY.
SO THAT IS SOMETHING TO WATCH
FOR SURE.
AND THEN THE NEXT ONE ARRIVES
MAYBE THE END NEXT WEEK.
WE NEED A BIG WET PATTERN TO
EMERGE AND THEN SUSTAIN ITSELF.
AND I AM HOPEFUL THAT WE'RE
GOING TO START TO RACK UP
SYSTEMS IN A ROW GOING OVER THE
NEXT SEVEN TO 10 DAYS.
FIRST ONE IS ON FRIDAY.
THE NEXT ONE IS
