SYNOPSIS
27/132 PM.
Quiet weather with seasonal temperatures will prevail this week. Breezy west to northwest winds will occur across some coasts and interior areas at times. Isolated showers are possible focused across interior areas Wednesday afternoon to evening
LONG TERM (FRI-MON)
27/132 PM.
Ridging will dominate the weather on Friday and Saturday. There will be moderate onshore flow so there may be some night through morning low clouds and fog. The onshore flow will also limit the amount of warming created by the ridge. Look for 2 to 4 degrees of warming (a little less across the Central Coast due to the onshore flow) on Friday with little change on Saturday. Max temps everywhere, save for the beaches, will end up 2 to 4 degrees above normal.
Plenty of disagreement between all mdls starting Sunday. The preponderance of solutions favors a 4 to 8 degree cool down with lowering hgts and strong onshore flow. The onshore flow will also bring gusty winds to the mtns and Antelope Vly in the afternoon.
While still a very low confidence forecast there is some chance of light rain anytime Sunday night through Tuesday or Wednesday.
