Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Hanford CA 235 PM PST Sat Dec 9 2023


SYNOPSIS
Sub-freezing temperatures as low as 28 degrees are expected in rural areas of the San Joaquin Valley each night and early morning today into Wednesday morning. A warming trend is anticipated Wednesday through at least Saturday. Dry weather will persist into next weekend.

DISCUSSION
A high pressure ridge is building over the region, and after some freezing overnight temperatures and areas of dense fog in the San Joaquin Valley, under sunny skies, temperatures this afternoon are on track to top out right around normal for this time of year.
The ridge is progged to migrate eastward Sunday ahead of a developing low pressure trough which will push across central California early next week. Under the ridge, we will continue to see seasonably mild afternoon temperatures and cold overnight lows. Blended model guidance shows as much as 60 to 80 percent probabilities for minimum temperatures at or below 32 degrees Sunday morning in much of the San Joaquin Valley outside of urban areas. Fog probabilities are currently around 40 to 50 percent for visibilities at or below 1/4 mile in a small area from around Corcoran to Hanford and Visalia late tonight and Sunday morning.

Mild afternoons and cold nights continue into midweek, when developing low pressure drops south to near northern Mexico by Thursday. A Freeze Warning remains in effect for each late night and early morning period from tonight through Wednesday morning.
A ridge will build in behind the low pressure area for the latter part of next week and afternoon highs will warm to around 8-12 degrees above normal for mid December. No precipitation is in the forecast through the end of next week.


AVIATION
IFR or lower conditions are possible in the San Joaqin Valley from 08Z-19Z Sunday due to mist and fog.

On Sunday December 10 2023, Fireplace/Wood Stove Burning Status is: No Burning Unless Registered in Fresno, Kern, Kings, Madera, and Tulare Counties. Burning Discouraged in Merced County, and Kern (Greater Frazier Park Area) and Sequoia National Park and Forest.
