Is Sherman going to blow this weekend?

Post by zgur » Fri Sep 02, 2011 10:27 am

....or, will Sacramento SUCK this weekend (as the island does not blow, sacto sucks in the cool air off the bay)....

Ikite is very pessimistic, but they've been blowing the forecast there all year long.

What do you guys think?

It's all about the fog. If the fog comes back in and it's hot in Sacramento, it's 'game on'...

looks to me like the marine layer is coming in from the S. I'm no meteorologist, but I would say sherman will blow this weekend.

It is going to blow, as in "this blows, why'd we bother". Bummer, but it looks like the offshore high pressure is going to bring nice weather but no wind! :(
