Happy Tuesday, Kern County. Our temperatures are starting to head in the right direction Tuesday as we prepare for a brief warm up Thursday and Friday. Bakersfield returns to the 70 degree range on Thursday.
The biggest weather story for this week is happening north of us as a strong storm system, called an atmospheric river, approaches Northern California and parts of Oregon. Heavy rain is expected from this system beginning Tuesday night, and rain chances last for the next few days.
Here in Kern County, we won't have nearly the same impacts as Northern California, but we do have a slight rain chance this weekend. Scattered showers are possible. We're continuing to track this storm's progress throughout the week.
