In a report from the National Weather Service San Diego, temperatures are set to rise with inland areas potentially seeing highs 5 to 10 degrees above average from Tuesday through Thursday, so if you're inland brace for a hotter midweek; coastal dwellers, expect your typical patchy morning fog but with a bonus of haze as the impact of the distant Gifford Fire becomes visible, you might want to keep the cameras ready for those hazy silhouettes at sunrise and sunset, clear skies are expected to return each afternoon though, as per the NWS Service San Diego.
As the heat intensifies, an Extreme Heat Warning has been put in place from Wednesday to Friday for the Coachella Valley and San Diego Deserts, so those in those areas should make preparations to stay cool and hydrated during the sweltering days, while the Inland Empire residents can anticipate a Heat Advisory on Thursday, according to the same NWS update, which reflects a significant increase in Heat Risk through these days—it's crucial to take this seriously and adjust plans accordingly, keeping an eye on any updates as the situation may change.
The detailed forecast reveals that the widespread haze will stick around after 8 AM today, and the foggy conditions before 11 AM might slow down the morning commute. So give yourself a few extra minutes to reach your destinations, especially if your route takes you through higher terrain where visibility could drop to between 1 and 5 miles. Better safe than sorry, after all.
The marine layer hovers 700 to 1100 feet over coastal areas breaking up by late morning with skies clearing up, offering a brief respite of clouds with evenings likely to bring that familiar fog rolling back in after 11 PM, setting the tone for a classic Southern California coastal night.
