Sunday turned out to be a nice day across the North State. It was mostly sunny except some high clouds, mild temperatures, and dry. It was a great day to be outdoors and get some exercise or clean up the yard, or both!

Rain will return on Monday, with the snow level around 4500'. We're looking at around 2/3" of rain in the Valley, but with higher totals likely in the foothills. The rain will turn to just a few scattered showers on Tuesday... and there is a slight chance of an afternoon thunderstorm.

We're looking at another storm moving in on Wednesday, and it looks stronger than the Monday storm. We'll see another 2/3" to one inch of rain in the valley, with the snow level again around 4500'. There is a decent chance of afternoon thunderstorms with this system. Some of the thunderstorms could produce heavy rain, small hail, and even a funnel cloud or two.

The steady rain will turn to off-and-on showers on Thursday, with a slight chance of a thunderstorm once again.

Sunshine will return on Friday. Valley highs will warm into the middle 60's on Friday, and we'll warm to near 70 by next Saturday!
