Comfortable Today, Cooler Tomorrow, and Watching Rain Chances Late Week

Seasonable temperatures persist across the Bay Area and Central Coast today, with coastal highs in the mid to upper-60s and interior valleys reaching the low to mid-70s. However, visible satellite already shows high cirrus clouds streaming overhead ahead of an approaching Pacific weather system.

Forecast Highlights:

Tomorrow (Monday): A weak frontal boundary sweeps through, bringing increasing cloud cover, breezy onshore winds, and daytime highs dropping 5 to 10 degrees below seasonal averages. Light rain is also possible Monday morning primarily favoring the North Bay and coastal terrain, tapering off as the boundary moves south.

Midweek: Expect quiet, dry, but generally cooler conditions to continue through midweek.

Late Week Outlook: Ensemble models continue to monitor a more organized system that could bring a return of light to moderate rain chances across Northern and Central California by Friday and into the upcoming weekend. Details on timing and amounts will become clearer over the coming days, so stay tuned!

Holy sparks, Bay Area! ⚡️ Mother Nature delivered an impressive amount of a lightning over the last 24 hours, racking up a staggering 24,000+ total electrical discharges across the region! A fraction of those discharges reached the ground as strikes.
