Wind Recipe:
1. A tiny storm system due west of S.F. blocks most of the North Pacific High’s surface NW winds.
2. Scattered high clouds mean the Central Valley gradient is very mild.
3. The storm provides a weak serving of WSW wind that might serve the wind-starved just outside of Anita Rock and Pt. Isabel/Berkeley but this thin gruel will struggle to reach above the mid-teens.
4. There are strong winds West wind ≈ 1000 feet aloft (975 MB) that may ripple down to the surface briefly.
So don’t make a long drive after seeing a brief spike on a wind graph!
6. Winds build a bit Saturday, with moderate NW winds Sunday.
