Decreasing Clouds and Warmer Weather
The tail end of a storm system impacting the Pacific Northwest will continue to generate light rain around the Monterey Bay Area overnight. High pressure will push in for the remainder of the week with warmer, dryer weather expected. The next weather system will arrive this weekend with mainly light rain on Sunday.
Wednesday: A few sprinkles linger through the morning commute, then decreasing clouds. A touch warmer with highs in the upper 50s to mid 60s.
Overnight: Partly cloudy skies with patchy fog. Lows mainly in the 40s on the coast with 30s-40s inland.
Thursday: Patchy am fog, then mostly sunny with passing high clouds. Warmer, with coastal highs in the upper 50s to mid 60s and 60s to around 70ºF inland.
Extended: Another mostly sunny, mild to (almost) warm day on Friday and likely early Saturday. The next weather system will bring rain to the region as early as late Saturday and more likely on Sunday. Expect a brief cool-down with highs in the 50s, then warmer weather next week.
The outlook from the Climate Prediction Center for January 29th – February 4th calls for the likelihood of ABOVE normal temperatures and BELOW normal precipitation.
