San Diego residents can expect a weekend of mild weather changes and a slight uptick in temperatures, according to the National Weather Service San Diego. Coastal temperatures will hover slightly above average, ranging from 68 to 76 degrees on Saturday, while the inland valleys see a modest increase to around 5 degrees above average for the season. The high desert can anticipate temperatures between 63 and 66 degrees, with the low desert warming up to a comfortable 73 to 77 degrees.
Northeast to east winds of 35 mph or less are expected to continue along the coastal slopes of the mountains into Saturday morning, weakening throughout the day. A weak upper-level low-pressure system is set to move slowly towards the coast, indicated by an increase in high clouds through Saturday, however, "chances for measurable rainfall will remain below 10 percent," as stated in the area forecast discussion provided by the NWS San Diego.
For avid mariners sailing the Pacific, the weekend's marine forecast looks clear, with no hazardous weather expected through Tuesday.

Local weather spotters, although not requested for Skywarn activation this weekend, are encouraged to report significant weather conditions as the NWS San Diego is keeping an eye on the mild weather movements through next week, forecasting temperature patterns to remain close to the seasonal averages.
