This weekend's California weather: Enjoy the calm before atmospheric river rainstorm

Enjoy the wonderful weather this weekend, because it won’t last much longer. This weekend, high temperatures will sit comfortably in the low 70s and upper 60s across Central California, and even into the low 80s for portions of Southern California; all just slightly above average for early November. With mostly sunny skies and light winds, it is the perfect weekend to spend outside, whether it be on the coast or in the mountains. This is all thanks to a weak ridge of high pressure that is setting up over the western U.S. As it sits overhead, skies are cleared and temperatures underneath the ridge will stay slightly above average alongside calm and stable skies. For the Sacramento area, high temperatures Friday will rise into the upper 60s and low 70s with some briefly passing clouds, and rise a few degrees more on Saturday as skies remain sunny. A few extra clouds to go around Sunday, but even then temps remain steady. Lows in the 40s during this stretch are typical for early November. It is the same story elsewhere. For the San Joaquin Valley, highs in the low 70s for Modesto, Merced, Fresno and San Jose on Friday will rise

Drone footage shared by Northern California aerial surf cinematographer DroneGuy650 shows Coast Guard rescue boats taking on towering surf in the San Francisco Bay Area.
