Synopsis – Mon Aug 19 2024

Breezy conditions continue, as we are still in a SW flow pattern, from a trough right off the West Coast and a ridge over the Central CONUS. Temperatures then hold about the upper 90s for Bishop thru Tuesday. By Wednesday / Thursday, another trough is expected to dive down the Canadian coast and bring further cooling to our Forecast Area. So by Friday Bishop’s temperatures look to drop below 90°, down to 88°…DMATT
