Synopsis – FRI AUG 21 2026

A little cooler today and breezy, from a trough pushing through the PACNW. Best chances of isolated rain and t-storms remain to our North, but I can’t rule out a few showers on Saturday in the Owens Valley. With that trough moving through, our ridge breaks down, allowing cooler temps to filter into our forecast area, over the weekend and into early next week….DMATT
