San Francisco woke to mostly clear skies Sunday, with a sunny afternoon ahead. The trade-off is west winds, with gusts generally ranging from 20 to 30 mph and making waterfront walks feel cooler than the thermometer suggests.
Afternoon Winds Pick Up
Sunday’s high should reach about 71 degrees, with west winds of 10 to 20 knots increasing to 20 to 30 knots from late morning through mid-evening, then becoming light in the late evening. No rain is expected, and temperatures should settle in the mid-50s Sunday night.
Boaters should pay closer attention: the National Weather Service forecast lists a Small Craft Advisory for San Francisco Bay north of the Bay Bridge from 3 p.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday, while stronger marine conditions are expected farther offshore.
Warm Monday, Then A Mild Week
Monday looks slightly warmer, with winds becoming light northeasterly early Monday. After that, the forecast provides broader temperature ranges for coastal and bay areas on Tuesday.
The marine layer is expected to return Monday night into Tuesday, bringing the possibility of gray coastal mornings before skies brighten later in the day. Tuesday overnight conditions are not specified for San Francisco.
The outlook builds on Hoodline’s earlier forecast, with the latest update highlighting Sunday’s gusty conditions and a slight warming trend from Friday into the following weekend.
