Only two lightning strikes near gilroy so far, but the central valley has had a handful of strikes. There have been reports of heavy rain and and small hail. Shower activity will diminish north to south through this evening as the upper low moves south. Winds will remain breezy through this evening and then gradually diminish overnight.

Higher peaks around the region will be much cooler and in the 50s. Despite the warm up temps are still below normal for late may.

Models keep the bay area dry, but do show some precip across the sierra. After a period of unseasonably wet weather the official forecast will be dry for much of the upcoming extended forecast.

Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
