High Wind in Grapevine, California

The PG&E station 5NW Lebec measured a peak wind gust of 69 mph.

A frontal system moved through central California on November 15. A large offshore upper low pulled up some moisture which accompanied the frontal system as it moved through the area and widespread precipitation fell although amounts were light with generally a tenth of an inch or less of rainfall in the San Joaquin Valley and West Side Hills, a tenth to a quarter inch of rainfall in the Sierra foothills and a quarter to half inch in the Sierra Nevada with the snow level close to 10000 feet. The main impacts from this system; however, was a period of gusty winds most noticeably in the Grapevine area where a few locations measured gusts above 55 mph during the late morning and afternoon and also in the south end of the San Joaquin Valley which had some areas of blowing dust.
