.DISCUSSION...
Looking at satellite this early afternoon, our cloud cover has
dissipated as temperatures warm throughout the day. Today`s main
weather message is lingering chances for showers and
thunderstorms, although most indications point to activity well
beyond our borders. Currently, there is a 5-10% chance of
thunderstorms over the mountains with best chance to see any
developed storm over the Shasta County NW Mountains during the
afternoon. Main hazards with any developed storm will be
lightning, gusty winds, and brief heavy rain showers.

Looking beyond today, we go into a period of cooler and drier
weather into early next week with afternoon highs in the 80s to
low 90s and daily afternoon onshore breezy weather. Another round
of overcast clouds across the Delta and Valley is expected with a
45-70% chance of occurrence for ceilings less than 2000 feet.
Afternoon humidity conditions trend drier before settling in the
30-50% range across the Valley, outside a pocket of drier
conditions over the northern Sacramento Valley.
