Sunny Delight
Air Quality (as of 8AM):
Good for all reporting stations.
Weather Story: High pressure will quickly rebound with dryer weather and warmer daytime highs through the weekend. A weather system may sneak through early to mid-week next week, however, which could mean future rain chances. However, this is still a low probability event.
Thursday: Patchy fog in the morning, then sunny and warmer with highs in the upper 50s to low 60s. Breezy at times in the hills and on the exposed coast.
Overnight: Mostly clear and cool. Overnight lows will be on the cool side with 20s-30s inland and 30s-40s on the coast.
Friday: Sunny and slightly warmer with coastal highs in the upper 50s to low 60s and 60s inland. Breezy at times over the hills.
Extended: Dry conditions continue through the weekend with chilly mornings and mild afternoons. Skies will be mostly sunny with a low cloud or two on the coast and then increasing high clouds starting Sunday. A weather system may sneak through the ridge by mid-week next week.
