The Bay Area will experience blustery, rainy, unsettled weather through the early part of this week, with thunderstorm chances giving way to the potential for frost advisories.
Monday's windy, stormy conditions produced moderate amounts of precipitation throughout the Bay Area and Central Coast, with small hail, thunderstorms and sudden, heavy downpours possible in localized areas, according to the National Weather Service.
As conditions dry out and skies clear overnight, temperatures are expected to drop down into the low to mid-30s in the North Bay valleys, the southern Salinas Valley, the Santa Lucia Mountain Range, and the higher elevations in San Benito and interior Monterey counties, according to the Weather Service.
This has prompted frost advisories for those areas from 2-9 a.m. on Tuesday.
Wednesday morning will also be cold and could feature frost warnings, as well, with the possibility of rain returning later in the day.
The best chances for midweek rain are in the coastal ranges and higher elevations in Napa and Sonoma counties, with forecasts calling for up to about a quarter of an inch to one third of an inch, while areas south of the Golden Gate Bridge might see a smattering of drizzle.
After that, the region can expect a warming trend over the weekend as a high-pressure system moves in from the eastern Pacific Ocean. Temperatures are expected to reach 10 degrees above seasonal averages into the early part of next week.
