The wet season has arrived in NorCal. What to expect from skies over the next few days
As we swing into the cooler months of the year, get used to more days like Wednesday and Thursday, with scattered showers across California and cloudy skies. On Wednesday, an area of cooler low pressure — an extratropical cyclone — is spinning out off the coast of the Golden State. As it churns, it brings with it scattered rain showers moving out of the south Wednesday through Thursday across nearly the entire state. For Sacramento and Fresno, it will be the first good rain — not a trace amount — since late spring. Because of how the cyclone is maturing off the coast, many of these showers will stack up and “train” across thin bands, leaving some cities and towns with little rain and others with substantial amounts. Earlier Wednesday, a string of showers and thunderstorms dropped upwards of half an inch of rain between Clovis and Sanger while Fresno remained mostly dry. Into Wednesday afternoon, Fresno and the San Joaquin Valley were seeing lighter, more widespread showers take hold for several hours at a time. Another half in to inch of rain are expected across the southern San Joaquin Valley, and especially the Sierra foothills, through Thursday. Slightly lower
