Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeFebruary began dry and relatively cool due to a northerly flow aloft and an upper-level ridge anchored off the West Coast. Some patches of dense fog formed throughout the San Joaquin Valley during the evening of January 31st, but had dissipated by mid-morning on the 1st. Skies over the San Joaquin Valley were mostly clear, except for stratocumulus clouds banked against the foothills and lower elevations of the southern Sierra Nevada. High pressure remained off the coast through the 3rd, and the circulation around the high allowed cooler and drier air to filter into|central California from the Great Basin. This kept skies mostly clear throughout the central California interior.||On the 4th through the 7th, the offshore high pressure built onshore. Temperatures warmed to above normal values with mostly clear skies prevailing throughout the region. Temperatures reached the upper 60s to mid 70s in the San Joaquin Valley and the Kern County deserts on the 6th and 7th. A dry upper-level short-wave trough moved through California on February 6th. This short-wave brought gusty winds to the west side of the San Joaquin Valley and to the Indian Wells Valley, but had no impact on temperatures.
