The North Bay is bracing for a cold snap this week, with temperatures expected to dip into the low- to mid-30s. Frost advisories and freeze watches are in effect for many areas.
Highs will also be cooler, with most areas experiencing upper 50s to lower 60s. Residents are advised to take precautions, such as protecting pets and sensitive plants from the cold. While the cold spell is expected to continue through Thursday, there’s a chance of rain returning by the end of the week or early next week.
This rain is much-needed, as January has been drier than usual despite a wet start to the rainy season. While reservoirs like Lake Sonoma are currently in good shape, consistent rainfall is crucial to maintain water levels and mitigate fire risks in the coming months.
