San Diego woke up under a gray blanket this morning, with cloudy skies and temperatures hovering near 63°F as a shallow marine layer hugs the coastline. Inland neighborhoods should still sneak into the low 70s this afternoon, while beaches and bayside districts stay cool, cloudy, and a little gloomy. Northwest breezes will stay on the mild side around 5–10 mph, so if you are heading to the water, a light jacket is still your friend.
Weekend Into Next Week
Those mostly cloudy vibes are expected to stick around through the weekend. Inland highs land around 71°F today and near 69°F on Sunday, with overnight lows in the upper 50s to low 60s. A low pressure system moving inland from late Sunday through Tuesday will nudge in a chance for light showers, with the best opportunity arriving Monday night into Tuesday morning. Most spots are in line for only light amounts, with totals likely staying under 0.15 inch. In the mountains and deserts, southwest to west winds could kick up Monday into Tuesday, with gusts of 35–45 mph and a few isolated higher gusts possible, according to the National Weather Service San Diego.
Fog And The Commute
The marine layer is not going anywhere fast, so expect it to keep generating patchy low clouds and morning fog near the coast. Visibility could dip to around 2–6 miles at times, just enough to make the morning drive feel a bit murky. The haze should thin inland by late morning before low clouds rebuild overnight. If you have an early commute or a dawn flight, it is worth padding in a little extra time and checking for any delays.
Looking Ahead
The incoming system brings a brief cool-down early next week, then the pattern flips as a warming trend develops by midweek. Highs climb back into the mid-70s by Thursday and reach the upper 70s by Friday, with inland valleys trending even warmer into next weekend.
