A north wind today will push temperatures back above normal.

Valley highs will reach the mid-90s, with foothill highs in the upper 80s. Aside from a pop-up storm south of Tahoe, the Sierra will be quiet, with highs in the upper 70s.

There’s a slightly greater chance of storms in the Sierra this weekend as the region prepares for more unsettled weather next week. Meanwhile, temperatures will begin to drop--valley highs in the mid-80s on Saturday, then the mid-70s on Sunday.

Our next significant weather system will arrive from the northwest with a sagging trough. Showers will reach the valley Monday evening and become widespread Tuesday, accompanied by increasing breezes. Valley highs will fall to the low 70s Tuesday, and showers are expected through Wednesday.
