Flood Warning | Northern California Weather Noon

Good afternoon! I'm Aaron Jolly. Welcome to the Northern California Weather Podcast for Wednesday, February 25th. That overnight rain left about a tenth of an inch on your windshield and 57 degrees in the air. Clouds are still draped over us like a gray wool blanket. But folks, this is the last gloomy chapter for a while. The Bay Area tops out near 64 degrees today under mostly cloudy skies. Nothing dramatic. Tonight gets interesting though. Patchy fog rolls in between 3 A.M. And 5 A.M., so early birds commuting through the valleys.. Slow down and give yourself extra time. Lows settle around 53 degrees. Push inland to the Central Valley and you're a few notches warmer. Highs near 67 degrees today, still cloudy. Lows tonight around 52 degrees. Farther inland? That's where the sun flexes. Mostly sunny skies and 75 degrees. The kind of afternoon where you eat lunch outside and forget it's February. Now the good stuff. Thursday the clouds peel back. The Bay Area jumps to 68 degrees under mostly sunny skies. Central Valley hits 70. Inland valleys hover near 73. That warming trend keeps rolling into Friday, when the Bay Area touches 70 degrees and inland spots push into the mid 70s. Saturday could be the headliner.. Some areas flirting with 76 degrees. That's shorts weather in February. Soak up every minute of it. Sunday a cutoff low slides north of us. A few light showers are possible over higher terrain Sunday afternoon, but most of us stay dry. Monday looks similar. Think of it as a speed bump, not a storm. One thing to watch. Fog potential climbs later this week with all this lingering moisture. Valley drivers, keep those low beams ready. I'll be tracking that weekend system closely tonight. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.
