@RobMayeda Lapse rates look like they could support some wet flakes if the temps can get down to ~34-35 from what I can see… hope you guys get some excitement! ❄️

[Nico Wells ⛰️ @WellsWarning]

@CAStormLover @RobMayeda @nbcbayarea @NWSBayArea Been snowing up there since early afternoon I believe. AlertCA can had a solid coating up there earlier, sfc temps at the top are 29°F right now too. Should be pretty over the next few days ❄️❄️

@skys_ramblings @ccace_wx @NWSNewYorkNY @ContentWxGuy @joshtimlin KFOK is in a spot where the sandy ground cools fast under ideal radiational cooling and where cold air pools. So it can act more like an inland cold pocket than a typical coastal spot. These cold pockets can be significantly colder than surrounding areas as we saw last night!

[Nico Wells ⛰️ @WellsWarning]

@Brody_wx Don’t worry, next month you’ll get a cold front that drops you 70° in a day

[Nico Wells ⛰️ @WellsWarning]

@NWSStateCollege -8°F in the barrens this morning!

[Nico Wells ⛰️ @WellsWarning]

Dense tule fog settled over CA’s Central Valley today, trapping chilly air under a strong inversion. Foothills are climbing into the 60s while the valley sits in the low 40s. KSMF is stuck at 43°F at noon, potentially the coldest Dec. 9 in Sacramento since the 1970s. #CAwx
