Pattern Change Will Bring Much-Needed Rain to California, West Coast This Weekend

A weather pattern change will bring much-needed rain and mountain snow to parts of the drought-stricken West, including California, into the weekend.
So far this month, the jet stream has often taken a huge detour northward over the eastern Pacific Ocean, effectively blocking Pacific storms from reaching the West Coast.
Because of this block, most locations in California other than the northern Sierra have yet to pick up any rain this month. Even typically wetter locations in the Pacific Northwest, such as Seattle and Portland, Oregon, have had one of the driest starts to April on record.

The west coast s enormous atmospheric river stalled over Monterey County on Wednesday, triggering mudslides and threatening other areas even farther north, with the storm expected to swing southward Thursday, posing risks to parts of Southern California burned by last year s wildfires.
Although the most torrential rains stalled over Monterey and Big Sur, weather forecasters say isolated but severe storms still threaten the area and officials are maintaining evacuation orders throughout the region.

A low pressure system off the Pacific Northwest is pulling the atmospheric river which was predicted to trend very quickly south toward the battered Central Coast, according to Brayden Murdock, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service in Monterey. Overnight, it should finally head south, forecasters say, although later than initially predicted.
The storm delivered several feet of snow to the Sierra Nevada, particularly the area between Yosemite National Park and Mammoth. More snow is expected into Friday, which could help replenish the state’s water supplies diminished by dry winters, including the last three months. The icy conditions have already made for miserable driving in the mountains.
