About this listen

 Good afternoon. Northern California. I'm Aaron Jolly. Step outside and you might do a double-take at the calendar. We're looking at temperatures more typical of mid-April than late February. A ridge of high pressure parked over California is the reason. and it's giving us a spectacular send-off to meteorological winter. In the next 24 hours. Currently sitting at 68 degrees under mainly clear skies. That's after an overnight low of 56. The Bay Area climbs to 73 degrees this afternoon under mostly sunny skies. The Central Valley? Even warmer. Patchy fog burns off by mid-morning, then partly sunny with highs near 79 degrees. That's about 44 degrees to 44 degrees above normal for late February. Tonight, clouds roll in ahead of our next weather maker. Lows drop to 54 in the Bay Area and the Central Valley. Sunday tells a different story. An approaching low-pressure system brings cooler air and clouds. Bay Area highs fall to 62 degrees. The Central Valley cools to 68. There's a slight chance of rain late Sunday afternoon in the Valley, with a better chance Sunday night. Here's your five-day outlook. A brief cool-down Sunday and Monday with some light rain possible. Then high pressure rebuilds mid-week. Tuesday through Friday look sunny and mild with highs in the mid-60s to near 70. Spring equinox is now just three weeks away. and today's weather is a fitting preview. In Sunrise at 6, 41 this morning. Sunset at 5:59 this evening. We're gaining over two minutes of daylight each day now. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves. Stay safe, stay prepared. and enjoy the day.
