Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Sacramento CA 1208 PM PDT Mon Mar 23 2026
For additional details on weather and expected impacts over the next 7 days, please visit weather.gov/sto/briefing.
KEY MESSAGES
- Above normal temperatures continue through the week with widespread Minor HeatRisk
- Gusty and drying northerly flow mid to late week, strongest on Thursday.
DISCUSSION
The Week Ahead
Current satellite has few to scattered clouds across CA this afternoon, with temperatures reaching to the 80s for daytime highs. We will continue to see well-above normal temperatures through the week and into the weekend, with some areas being 10-25 degrees above average. This is thanks to a ridge of high pressure dominating over the western United States for the past week. We will continue to see near record to record highs across the area especially within the Valley. Minor HeatRisk is expected within the Valley and adjacent foothills through the weekend. There does look to be some relief on the horizon with ensemble guidance showing the ridge breaking down slowly and shifting eastward into central CONUS. Timeframe of occurrence is around early to mid next week, but there is still uncertainty on how fast the ridge breaks down and how cool temperatures get. As of right now it looks as if temperatures will remain above normal, but there will be a chance for light precipitation at times within the higher terrain early to mid next week. More will be known as we get toward the end of this week.
Otherwise, we will see breezy northerly winds Wednesday night into Friday, with gusts up to 30mph within the northern Sacramento Valley and adjacent foothills. Strongest winds will be during the day on Thursday. Throughout the week, RH values will continue to trend lower toward the teens and lower 20s. The northerly winds combined with the dry conditions will continue too accelerate the drying of fuels across the area.
As we continue to see well-above normal temperatures for this time of year, individuals should practice heat safety. Please be sure to stay hydrated and take breaks from being in the sun during the heat of the day. Always remember to use caution and wear a life jacket near area waterways.
AVIATION
VFR conditions are expected through the TAF period, with light winds around 5-10kts through the day. Light and variable winds during the overnight hours. Skies will be SCT to FEW throughout the day and slowly clear out by tonight and into tomorrow.
STO WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES
None.
