In Bakersfield on Wednesday, we only reached a high of 59°, which is quite lower than the usual 73° for this time of year. The rain from tuesday has moved on, but we did manage to collect .16 inches in the rain gauge for Bakersfield, almost half an inch for Wofford Heights and nearly 1 inch of rain for Tehachapi. Despite the rain moving out, we are still feeling the effects of cooler air in our area. Wednesday morning, we had some low clouds hanging around before clearing up, along with patches of fog near the ground. There is still a chance of mountain showers in Wednesday evening, with a 30 to 40 percent likelihood due to the lingering cold air. However, once the ridge moves in on Friday through the weekend, we can expect a significant warming in temperatures. Temperatures may dip slightly on Monday and Tuesday as the ridge weakens temporarily, but it will strengthen again next Wednesday, bringing warm and dry weather as we transition out of the wet season. ...read more read less
