A high pressure area that has anchored along the West Coast since September is expected to weaken by Saturday and increase the chance of the first precipitation in weeks.

A cooler flow of moist air is expected off the ocean next week, but computer forecast models are not clear on how much of a change that will bring, forecasters said this morning.
