The high pressure ridge continues to push fronts off to the north. This gave us another pleasant day and we can expect one more before a pattern change brings in more rain by the weekend. This means tonight will be another partly cloudy night with light winds, the low near 51.
Tomorrow will also look mostly sunny with the winds becoming northerly 5-10, the high near 69. The ridge starts to weaken tomorrow night as an upper level trough of low pressure pushes toward the area. This will bring increasing cloudiness tomorrow night, still the light winds, lows near 52.
Saturday, we see cloudy skies with the onshore flow increasing so winds becoming westerly 5-10, the high down to near 65. Some rain moves in Saturday night as the trough approaches the coast, light southwesterly winds, lows near 52.
The trough moves across Sunday so look for another rainy day, afternoon highs continue to cool, look for the high near 60 Sunday afternoon under cloudy skies still, and lows down near 49.
Monday on through midweek continues to look colder and wet with a strong upper level northwesterly flow, so Monday looks rainy, the high near 59, the low near 43, more of the same Tuesday, but cooler, mostly cloudy and rainy, highs near 57, lows near 43. The high Wednesday, and still with that chance of rain, only up near 56.
