| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | The storm moved east of California on February 21st, but was followed by a dry system two days|later. This storm brought wind gusts of 45-55 mph to the Kern County mountains and deserts.|A big rig was blown over on Highway 14 in the Kern County desert. This storm also brought a|push of unseasonably cold air into the central and southern San Joaquin Valley. Temperatures|fell below freezing on the mornings of February 24th and 25th at several Valley locations.||An upper-level disturbance dropped into the Great Basin during the night of February 25th-26th.|A mid-level jet around the edge of this disturbance brought winds that funneled through the|passes and canyons of the Tehachapi Mountains. This generated gusts of 45-50 mph from below|the Tehachapi Pass to the Mojave area shortly after midnight. The disturbance moved east of the|Great Basin, causing the winds to rapidly subside between 3:30 and 4 AM on the 26th.||High pressure built back into California the last two days of the month, with temperatures|warming above normal.||Although February normally is one of the wettest months of the year, rainfall in February 2013|was well below normal. Only 0.60 inch of rain fell at Meadows Field, Bakersfield, or 48.4|percent of the normal for the month (1.24 inch). Although more rain (0.89 inch) was recorded at|Fresno-Yosemite International Airport, the normal at Fresno for February is also higher. Fresno|only received 43.8 percent of its normal for the month of 2.03 inches.||For the rain season, which began on July 1st, 2012, Bakersfield had a total of 2.22 inches, or 49.6|percent of the normal value of 4.48 inches. Fresno fared a little better, with a season-through-|February 28th total of 4.86 inches. This was 61.7 percent of the normal value of 7.88 inches.||Both Bakersfield and Fresno had mean monthly temperatures slightly below normal. Bakersfield|had an average temperature of 51.3 degrees, 1.3 degree below normal. Fresno was slightly|cooler, with a mean temperature of 51.0 degrees; this was 0.5 degree below normal. Both cities|had above-normal mean high temperatures, but these were more than offset by colder than|normal mean low temperatures. |
