| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | The next upper-level trough began moving into California on May 14th, bringing colder air and abundant mid and high clouds. Temperatures in the central and southern San Joaquin Valley only reached the mid 60s to mid 70s, down as much as 22 degrees from the 13th. During the morning of the 14th, a thin layer of cirrostratus covered the San Joaquin Valley. The layer of ice crystals aloft produced a prominent halo around the Sun that was visible from parts of the Valley.||The upper-level trough remained over the central California interior from May 15th through the 18th. Upper-level disturbances brought periods of showers to the region, as well as scattered thunderstorms during the afternoon of the 15th. Three funnel clouds were seen over the central San Joaquin Valley on May 15th (one in the morning near the foothills east of Fresno, and two in the afternoon near Kerman), and another funnel was observed on the 18th near Arvin in Kern County. |
