episode_narrativeDuring the time period from December through mid-January, relative high pressure aloft dominated the Central California synoptic weather pattern. With no major frontal systems between the 2nd and 10th of January 2000, mostly clear nights gave rise to strong radiational cooling and a streak of consecutive cold nights for the Central and Southern San Joaquin Valley. While freezing temperatures were reached, grower protection measures were effective enough to minimize any citrus crop damage. Generally the coldest readings (24 to 26 deg F.) were on the very lowest portions of the San Joaquin Valley floor and away from primary citrus areas (with readings 28 deg F. or higher) during this time period. It appears that the morning of the 6th was the coldest when almost all stations were in the 20s, including 25 deg F. at Merced, 29 deg F. at Fresno, and 26 deg F. at Bakersfield.
