Looking south from Milagra Ridge in Pacifica.
Summary:
After blowing through with wind and rain, toppling some trees and cancelling a few events, last weekend’s storm is long gone from Northern California and we’re back into our summery pattern. Partly cloudy to mostly sunny skies will take us into the weekend from Tahoe to the Bay and highs will range from the low 60’s near Lake Tahoe to near 70 around the Bay. Now’s the time to hit the beaches or just take your lunch outside.
Don’t forget that on Friday I’ll be hosting a flashlight hike up at Twin Peaks in San Francisco, followed by an Italian dinner in the Castro. If you’re looking for something to do on Friday, sign up! Morgen and Alison are also hosting an awesome Sea Otter Kayak down in Moss Landing on the Monterey Bay on Sunday. The weather’s looking great and this is a fantastic event to get outside and see some cute local wildlife.
Around Tahoe:
Sadly, I think it’s time to break out the mountain and road bikes until the next snow arrives. We’re going to be warm and dry around Tahoe for the foreseeable future. Today through Friday, expect highs around lake level in the low 60’s with lows around freezing. Sunny skies will dominate as well. We’re really going to need a “miracle March” to recover any hope of a ski season.
For more Tahoe snow details, check out the Tahoe Daily Snow and follow Tahoe Weather on Facebook.
Backcountry Conditions from the Sierra Avalanche Center:
MODERATE avy danger exists in the backcountry above 8,700ft. with the risk of high consequence, persistent slabs releasing in very specific terrain. For all other elevations and aspects, avy danger is LOW. Check the full report for observations and details.
Hike and Bike Conditions Around the Bay:
Awesome weather and sunny skies have returned to the Bay. Temperatures will warm tomorrow and Friday to close to 70 for many locations around the Bay Area. Some passing clouds, but no precip are forecasted. If you can get outside during your lunch break to take a walk or eat in a park, now’s a great time to do it. I got out for a run before work this morning on the coast and I couldn’t have asked for better weather.
Surf Around the Region:
Surf around the region is building yet again with a large, mid period swell impacting our local beaches starting today and continuing through Friday. The Weather Service has already posted a beach hazard advisory for the next two days, so if you head out for a surf, avoid beaches with a solid W exposure. Protected breaks like the south side of Lindamar in Pacifica and Bolinas will be the best bet for safe, fun, manageable surf.
