•  • Check out a really cool weather application called YoWindow!......YoWindow displays weather conditions over a nice and peaceful landscape.....So you can watch the weather looking at the landscape.....Naturally - just like looking out of your window.....You see the current weather picture instead of just bare weather data!......It has a beautiful picture - quality graphics and animation.....The weather picture is easy to get and easy to remember, opposed to weather reports......Watch the weather at any moment you wish......The picture is built on top of the real data - weather, sun-light, season, astronomical calculations......Every weather phenomenon is supported: various clouds, rain, snow, hail, fog, & wind (reflected in the clouds, grass, rain drops, etc) As well as thunderstorms.....Every weather parameter you need is available for display from The Chester Weather Center - temperature, wind speed and direction, pressure, humidity, etc.......Occasionally, you will notice interesting objects in the skies like a plane or shooting stars as well as a few surprises!......Click here to look out Yo Weather Window!<----------->The high pressure area that has been along the coast is beginning to weaken as a low pressure trough pushes into western Canada........Temperatures today will be about like yesterdays in the foothills and mountains and 2 to 4 degrees cooler in the Sacramento Valley........Temperatures will cool a little more on Saturday as the southern end of the trough brushes northern California.......This is a "dry" system and will only bring scattered clouds to the far north end of the state...however...gusty southwest winds will also occur over the higher elevations on Saturday........The cool air behind the trough will be over the area on Sunday and this will drop temperatures 5 to 10 degrees from their Saturday levels.......Another trough begins to drop southward along the coast Monday and by late Tuesday a weak upper level low will have formed on the south end of the trough.......This system will be strong enough to bring partly cloudy skies to the north state with a chance of showers in the northern mountains late Tuesday and Wednesday.........Max temperatures by Wednesday will be upper 50s and 60s in the mountains and 70s in the Sacramento Valley.  •
