A storm is headed to the region on Saturday.
Another system could douse the Sonoma coast Thursday morning, leaving the rest of the Bay Area dry as the storm passes north. The next chance for widespread precipitation is on Saturday, with a light-to-moderate rainfall to blanket the North Bay hills, Santa Cruz Mountains and the Santa Lucia range in 0.50 to 0.75 inches of rain while the rest of the region could get 0.25 to 0.50 inches, with lighter amounts in the South Bay due to the rain shadow effect.
A high pressure ridge was stopping any storms from reaching the Bay Area, but has been pushed eastward with the most recent storm. The weather pattern has resulted in the driest January and February in the state’s recorded history, with San Francisco getting .65 of an inch of rain and San Jose receiving 0.01 of an inch in what would usually be the wettest time period.
There could be another chance for rain later next week, but there’s still a “lot of uncertainty” in how the pattern is going to develop, according to Gass. “The rainfall that we’re getting currently and are expecting to occur on Saturday isn’t really gonna do much in the way of helping the ongoing drought conditions,” Gass said. “That’s on a larger scale with reservoirs and those kind of things not getting the beneficial runoff they’d usually get from a stronger system.”
