WeatherWatcher: Weekly weather, Dry spell ending

• The week ahead
• Last week's weather data

For the week and weekend ahead our dry weather is ending. The high pressure responsible for our stagnant air and fog is moving east allowing the normally dominate westerly onshore flow of air to clear out all of the fog and pollution. We have made it 11 days without measurable precipitation.  Steady rain has returned to the region earlier this afternoon helping more with clearing out the particulate pollution matter in the air. Wednesday evening turned into off and on showers, and we are expecting more of the same for the remainder of the week and through the weekend.  Temperatures are expected to run in the low 40's and upper 30's.

Last week's weather data:

High temperature: 39.2ºF (Tuesday)

Low temperature: 22.1ºF (Sunday)
