Another low pressure trough moved through this morning, enhancing the onshore flow, pushing in the marine layer and fog. It also gave us the breezy afternoon winds and kept the temperatures a little on the cooler side.
Tonight, we see a high pressure ridge building in and that will give us partly cloudy skies, calm winds, some patchy fog, and lows down near 48.
The fog clears later tomorrow morning leaving sunny skies, the afternoon winds becoming westerly 10-15 gusting to 25, highs near 70, then mostly clear skies tomorrow night, that patchy fog returns with light winds, lows near 50.
The fog likely clears a little sooner Saturday, again leaving sunny skies, the winds becoming northwesterly 5-10, afternoon highs near 71, then yep, the patchy fog returns Saturday night with light winds, lows near 51.
The models still suggest another weak front approaches the area on Sunday, bringing a slight chance of showers during the day on Sunday with a better chance of showers Sunday night, highs near 70, lows near 54.
The weak front continues to move eastward Monday leaving us with a slight chance of post-frontal showers thru Monday night then a disturbance riding the flow gives us another chance of showers Tuesday with a slight chance on the back side of the disturbance on Wednesday. High temperatures next week up around 69, the nighttime lows down near 52.
