The arrival of a winter-like weather system into the Bay Area is unusual for August, as it brings cooler temperatures and the possibility of rain.
National Weather Service meteorologist Dalton Behringer noted that such a significant weather pattern shift at this time of year is rare, although not impossible.
This pattern shift, stemming from a deep low pressure system from the Gulf of Alaska, may help mitigate the wildfire risk in the area.
Although the cool down is not expected to last long, it provides a respite from the heat and showcases the region's unpredictable weather patterns.
