.Synopsis...
Gusty north winds today. Dry and mild weather through Friday.
Precipitation chances return this weekend.

&&

Skies are clear across the region early this morning. Northerly
surface pressure gradient is rising (up to about 10 mbs MFR-SAC)
in the wake of the short-wave trough passing to the north. So far,
gusts have mainly been in the 15-25 mph range along the western
half of the Sacramento Valley and adjacent foothills, and KDAX VWP
is showing winds now up to 35-40 kts at 1k ft above the surface.

Gusty north winds will peak this morning into the early afternoon
as increased mixing develops after daybreak. Gusts of 35-45 mph
will be possible, mainly over the western half of the Sacramento
Valley affecting Interstate 505 and portions of Interstate 5 to
the northwest of Sacramento. A Wind Advisory remains in effect
until 5 PM.

Otherwise, dry and mild weather will continue through the
remainder of the work week with highs in the Central Valley in the
upper 70s to mid 80s, warmest on Friday. Locally breezy north to
east winds will be possible each day, but not as strong as
today`s.

It`s looking more likely that we`ll see a rapid change back to
cool and unsettled weather this weekend as a strong trough digs
south into NorCal from the Gulf of Alaska spreading widespread
precipitation and high elevation snow across the region Friday
night into Saturday. Stay tuned for updates.

&&

.EXTENDED DISCUSSION (Sunday THROUGH Wednesday)...
Lingering mountain showers possible Sunday, otherwise dry weather
Sunday into Monday as short wave ridging moves through. Weak
embedded vort maxes progged through interior NorCal Monday into
Wednesday in NWly flow aloft. Main threat of showers looks to be
in the northern and eastern foothills and mountains. Gradual
warming trend expected through the extended period with highs
returning to near or slightly below normal by the middle of next
week.

&&

.AVIATION...
VFR conditions over interior NorCal into Thu. In Central Vly, Nly
sfc wind 15-25 kts with lcl gusts up to 35 kts possible til 01z
Thu. In foothills/mtns areas N-E sfc wind gusts up to 30 kts next
