WELL, WE ALMOST HAVE TWO SEPARATE FORECASTS TODAY. FOR MONO COUNTY, A TROUGH PASSING THROUGH OREGON WILL KEEP THE SKIES PARTLY TO MOSTLY CLOUDY WITH VERY WINDY CONDITIONS AND A CHANCE OF SOME TRACE PRECIPITATION OVER THE CREST. FOR INYO COUNTY, MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES, WARM TEMPERATURES AND MILD BREEZES WILL PREVAIL. ON TUESDAY BOTH AREAS FALL MORE IN LINE WITH A RIDGE BUILDING IN OFF THE COAST, REDUCING THE WINDS IN MONO COUNTY AND KEEPING TEMPERATURES SPRING-LIKE FOR INYO THROUGH FRIDAY, WHICH IS THE FIRST DAY OF SPRING. RIGHT NOW IT LOOKS LIKE LATE ON SATURDAY AN UPPER TROUGH PASSES BY GIVING OUR ENTIRE AREA A CHANCE AT PRECIPITATION INTO SUNDAY. UPDATES TO FOLLOW ON THIS...
