Synopsis – TUE JAN 20 2026

Unfortunately no changes in the dry forecast thru this week. Strong high pressure is sitting over the West Coast thru this week and into the weekend. The ridge should shift a bit NW by the end of week, as a cold trough tries to “backdoor” into our area. But it does not look like it will dig far South and West to bring us any moisture…DMATT
