LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — The National Weather Service is forecasting a weather pattern change this weekend that could bring some much-needed rain to the region.
The forecast calls for mainly dry conditions and below normal temperatures through Friday, with rain showers to become probable across much of the region this weekend into early next week.
The National Weather Service’s extended forecast for Lake County notes that early indications are for a high chance of the county and other parts of the North Coast to receive light rainfall over the weekend.
At the same time it’s possible that portions of southern Humboldt and northern Mendocino counties will receive as much as a half inch of rain during that time.
The specific Lake County forecast expects patchy overnight fog through parts of the Northshore through Saturday, but otherwise clear conditions.
Beginning on Saturday night, there is up to a 40% chance of rain, with between a tenth and a quarter of an inch possible.
The forecast further calls for chances of rain on Sunday and Sunday night, as well as on Monday, with a slight chance of rain anticipated on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Daytime temperatures through Friday are expected to range between the high 70s on the Northshore to the low 80s in the south county, dropping into the 60s from Saturday through Monday before rising into the 70s again on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Nighttime conditions are expected to hover in the low 50s through the middle of next week, with light winds also in the forecast through Saturday.
