chance of thunderstorms for valley and mountains
From the National Weather Service in Sacramento:
MONSOONAL MOISTURE MOVING INTO NORTHERN CALIFORNIA WILL COMBINE
WITH A WEATHER DISTURBANCE PASSING OVER THE AREA LATER TODAY TO
SPARK THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY TONIGHT INTO EARLY SUNDAY. ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED IN THE CENTRAL VALLEY AND SIERRA
FOOTHILLS WITH SCATTERED STORMS OVER THE SIERRA...SOUTHERN
CASCADES...AND MOUNTAINS WEST OF THE SACRAMENTO VALLEY.
ANY THUNDERSTORMS THAT FORM WILL INITIALLY HAVE LITTLE TO NO
RAIN...POSING INCREASED FIRE DANGER. GUSTY WINDS ARE ALSO POSSIBLE
ALONG WITH BRIEF HEAVY RAIN ONCE PRECIPITATION IS ABLE TO REACH
THE GROUND.
THUNDERSTORMS WILL DIMINISH ACROSS THE AREA SUNDAY MORNING FROM
SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST AS DRIER AIR MOVES INTO THE REGION.
