gilroy tied 33 degrees. now, observer at that location in cordelia told me that was his coldest for that location on that date and goes back 25 to 30 years. and everything is about to change. a rainy week ahead here not today. rain begins tuesday and wednesday and then wind picks up and the colder core of the low begins to work its way in thursday and friday. i think it will go into saturday. we are on the northern edge of all this so far everything looks to be taking aim from monterey to santa barbara and progeeks from 5 to 10 inches of rain for the airs and deep moisture is coming in. so this is a huge issue for the burn areas from santa barbara to l.a. we seem to be far enough north that we may not get into that much. but if it zigs instead of zags it could be a different story. but right now it looks like monterey south. sierra will see a snow level go up and come way down so starting tuesday, wednesday, it's high. and thursday and friday it drops way down again. more feet of snow. and all this moisture
