Weather system predicted to bring light weekend rain
The National Weather Service said high clouds associated with the next weather system are approaching the area from the west, and this will very gradually increase in coverage into early Friday.
The forecast calls for generally dry conditions for the first half of Friday, but a weak weather front could bring very light showers along with increasing cloud cover inland.
From Saturday morning through late Saturday night, the National Weather Service said a “more substantial front” will move across the area. That front is expected to bring light to moderate rainfall of about a few hundredths of an inch in Lake and Mendocino counties, with more rainfall farther north.
The forecast said precipitation will begin to wind down early Sunday morning, with Monday seeing the return of drier conditions.
Temperatures this week will range into the high 70s during the day and mid-40s at night, according to the local forecast.
Winds of up to 11 miles per hour also are forecast through Sunday.
