The latest storm, spawned as a typhoon in the western Pacific, spun northeast then got trapped into prevailing westerly winds and targeted California’s two most vulnerable areas: the mountains blackened by the two-week Loma fire and the giant Soberanes fire in Monterey County and the Los Padres National Forest.Īs often happens, the rain clouds unloaded onto the coastal mountains, then lightened up considerably in the Bay Area’s valleys. “I think you’ll see temperatures going up 5 degrees a day in the inland areas, until we get into the 80s and maybe even the 90s by next weekend,” Benjamin said.
