SAN DIEGO — The marine layer will remain shallow through Friday with a mid-morning burn off to the coast. As onshore flow picks up from sweeping lows, expect the marine layer to deepen and linger a little longer Thursday morning with more afternoon sunshine to follow. Weak Santa Ana winds will develop, which could push temperatures five to 10 degrees above average on Thursday and Friday. The wind gusts will peak up to 25 - 35 mph.
Some coastal cities will peak in the low 70s with low 80s across the inland valleys. On those days, expect patchy cloud cover close to the coast. The marine layer will retreat back to the coast as opposed to stretching to the coastal mountain slopes like Wednesday morning. This will lead to the return of patchy low clouds and fog along the coast.
AT THE COAST:
The surf will remain elevated through the middle of the week. Surf heights will subside on to 2 to 4 feet with a moderate risk of rip currents on Thursday.
Weak Santa Ana winds will develop which could push temperatures 5 to 10 degrees above average Thursday and Friday. The wind gusts will peak up to 25 - 35 mph. Some coastal cities will peak in the low 70s with low 80s across the inland valleys.
On those days, expect patchy cloud cover close to the coast. The marine layer will retreat back to the coast as opposed to stretching to the coastal mountain slopes like Wednesday morning. This will lead to the return of patchy low clouds and fog along the coast.
The marine layer will deepen a little more over the weekend as a low pressure system sweeps through the Pacific Northwest. The latest model runs show it sagging a little more to the south. Therefore, our chances have increased for a slight to a chance Saturday night through Sunday. Cooler temperatures and gusty west winds will also pick up with a more pronounced dip in degrees inland from Saturday to Sunday.
