FNUS76 KSTO 161732 FWSSTO Spot Forecast for Loafer Creek RX...CAL FIRE National Weather Service Sacramento CA 1032 AM PDT Fri Oct 16 2026 Forecast is based on ignition time of 1200 PDT on October 19. If conditions become unrepresentative...contact the National Weather Service. .DISCUSSION... A pattern shift is expected to be in full swing through much of next week as cooler temperatures, breezy onshore winds, and increasing humidity values arrive with an offshore low pressure system.

General consensus indicates a trend toward drier weather and possible breezy north-northwest winds by the end of the week, but this portion of the forecast carries high uncertainty at this time. .MONDAY...
