NEXT RAIN CHANCE SAN DIEGO: UPDATED WEDNESDAY 4-1-2020

Computer forecasts have significantly accelerated the next storm system. This is going to prevent the warm up for this upcoming weekend. High temperatures will remain below average for the foreseeable future.

Looking at the satellite loop below, you can see the overall flow of the upper atmosphere. There is a direct path connecting California to Alaska. Our next system will take this trajectory and park off the coast for the start of next week.

Isolated showers are possible ahead of this system on Sunday (30%). A better chance for rain arrives Monday, especially late in the day (60%).

Computer forecasts are having difficulty dealing with this system afterwards. Some are showing this system stalling and drawing moisture into our area Tuesday. This could greatly enhance our rainfall potential. It's still too early for me to give a definitive forecast. I'll keep an eye on it and bring more updates in the coming days. For the time being, I'm leaving rain in the forecast for both Tuesday (60%) and Wednesday (40%) of next week.

Snow levels could drop low enough by Wednesday for local mountains to see some flakes. Again, it's still too early to give specifics.
