303 PM PDT THU AUG 13 2026
THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE OVER THE SIERRA NEVADA CREST THIS AFTERNOON
DUE TO A LOW PRESSURE TROUGH DRIVING MOISTURE ACROSS CENTRAL
CALIFORNIA FROM THE SOUTH-SOUTHWEST. THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE
AFTERNOON AND EVENING, THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH
AS THE MAIN THREAT PUSHES TOWARDS THE EASTERN SIDE OF THE SIERRA
CREST. MANY OF THE CURRENT STORMS ARE PROVIDING ENOUGH
PRECIPITATION TO CLASSIFY AS "WET" THUNDERSTORMS, HOWEVER ANY
LIGHTNING STRIKE OUTSIDE A STORM CAN START A NEW FIRE, ESPECIALLY
IF IT OCCURS ON DRY FUELS. THROUGHOUT THE REMAINDER OF THIS WEEK
AND INTO NEXT WEEK, THUNDERSTORM CHANCES DROP TO AROUND 10% OR
LESS. TEMPERATURES WILL MAINTAIN IN THE 90S FOR THE LOWER
ELEVATIONS THROUGH THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS, WITH DESERT TEMPERATURES
NEARING 100 DEGREES. AS A RESULT, MINRH VALUES ARE EXPECTED AROUND
30 PERCENT FOR THE SAN JOAQUIN VALLEY, AND IN THE LOW TEEN'S FOR
THE DESERT. SIERRA RH VALUES WILL BE IN THE 30 TO 40 PERCENT RANGE
THROUGH THE WEEK.
