KCEC Day 6 Forecast Discussion

Precipitation will be moving through the area throughout the day on Tuesday, and some of this precipitation will likely occur into the early part of the forecast period on Wednesday. Skies will likely be very cloudy or completely overcast during the period with flow coming in off the Pacific. With this flow off of the Pacific during the period, the low for the forecast period will likely not be able to get quite as low as the models are projecting right now, and the high will likely not be able to get quite as high as the models are projecting right now. A closer range for the diurnal maximum and minimum seems more reasonable as well given the flow off the Pacific and the overcast skies. Maximum wind will likely occur soemtime during the early to mid-afternoon hours with a maximum wind somewhere near 14 to 15 knots.
