Deep, cool southwest flow will continue for the next day or so with a trough of low pressure moving through. Enhanced lift and upslope flow will squeeze drizzle (at time bordering on light rain) from the clouds in the Santa Cruz Mountains with patchy drizzle possible elsewhere. This southwesterly flow will be gusty at times at the surface and will likely once again clear out the southeast corner of Monterey Bay during the afternoon Tuesday.

The forecast this week is complicated to say the least. The short of it is that it will be cooler and there will be several chances for some light precipitation. The long of it starts with the setup: a frontal system moved down the coast in to Sunday morning and stalled, basically disappearing flush with the coastline. High pressure moves to the east on Monday and a trough of low pressure will approach from the west. As it approaches, the frontal boundary will reactive and rush inland with the seabreeze Monday afternoon, pushing clouds and cooler, moist air inland. There may be enough lift to spawn a shower over the far inland mountains if there is enough instability. Deep southwesterly flow develops which will keep pushing cool, moist air into the coastal mountains. Eventually, it will moisten enough that drizzle will begin to fall—perhaps even bordering on light rain at times. A surface cyclone will also develop to our north along the stalled front as the trough approaches and then slowly push southward. This will help enhance the upslope flow into the coastal mountains into Tuesday and perhaps all the way into Wednesday morning. That drizzly, light rain could accumulate surpassing a tenth of an inch or more in the Santa Cruz Mountains, though most other areas will see scattered sprinkles at best. All the while, expect seasonable to slightly cool temperatures for this time of year. The trough will pass over us Wednesday into Thursday. Most models are dry with the transit, but I can’t rule out an isolated shower or two. For more on the trailing system that arrives on Friday that we’ve been talking about as well, see the extended forecast below.
