Just A Touch Cooler
High pressure will be the main
influence on our weather in the coming days, keeping high temperatures above
normal. The next weather system will slip past the high and sneak in to our
south on Friday. It is possible that system could throw some moisture our way
in the form of an isolated shower or two Friday into early Saturday. Beyond
that, back to warm & dry.
Overnight: A few low clouds overnight, with patchy fog possible—mainly
on the south/east sides of the bay. Expect coastal lows in the upper 30s to mid
40s with upper 20s to upper 30s inland.
Wednesday: A few low clouds on the outer coast, otherwise
occasional passing high clouds. Coastal highs in the upper 50s to mid 60s with
60s to low 70s inland.
Thursday: Partly cloudy with mixed
mid to high level clouds. Otherwise, mild with coastal highs in the upper 50s
to mid 60s and 60s to low 70s inland.
Extended: A cut-off low pressure system will slowly pass by to our
south Friday into Saturday. Temperatures will remain fairly consistent with
previous days, but it will also throw a few extra clouds our way. There is also
the chance of a light shower or two late Friday into Saturday. High pressure
then reasserts its dominance into next week with cool lows and warm highs. The
transition period on Sunday/Monday may be a little cooler and breezy, however.
The outlook from the Climate Prediction Center for February 26th – March 3rd calls for the likelihood of BELOW normal temperatures and BELOW normal precipitation.
