The monsoonal moisture is getting closer by the minute!
While valley communities only have a 10% chance of precipitation on Saturday, the mountain and desert communities will be seeing the majority of the moisture.
Thunderstorms are likely- so remember to avoid open areas, light poles and trees.
Staying indoors is key! The storms are expected to roll in during the afternoon and stay till the evening.
Switching over to the temperatures- Friday was day 19 of Kern County's heatwave and it looks like day 20 is likely for Saturday.
