Metro locations are going to pick up between 0.25-0.3" total, with significantly less further west. It's much needed rain, but we need quite a bit more to put a dent in our current drought situation. Some parts of the state have seen less than a half inch since September 1st.

Tomorrow begins a short dry stint that will last at least through Friday. Patchy fog develops early Wednesday morning, with more clouds than sun the rest of the day. Temps will rebound to near 50, and we should be at least that warm through your extended forecast.
