San Jose starts Sunday around 57 degrees under cloudy skies, with morning fog expected to clear before 9 a.m. The National Weather Service forecast calls for a mostly sunny afternoon near 74 degrees, beginning several warm days across the South Bay.
Sunday Through Veterans Day
Sunday’s northwest winds are forecast to remain light, between 1 and 6 mph, as temperatures rise through the 60s into the mid-70s. Sunday night should be partly cloudy with a low near 50, and patchy fog is possible early Monday.
The forecast then climbs to about 75 degrees Monday and 77 Tuesday, with Veterans Day expected to reach around 80. The National Weather Service expects dry, mostly sunny conditions through midweek, with generally light winds.
How Warm Is the Forecast?
For comparison, the National Weather Service lists San Jose Airport’s normal high for Nov. 8 as 69°F, five degrees below Sunday’s forecast high of 74°F. The forecast high of 80°F for Veterans Day is 11 degrees above that Nov. 8 benchmark; the normal cited here is for Nov. 8, not Nov. 11.
Late-Week Rain Outlook
The dry stretch may give way late in the week. A slight chance of light rain begins after 4 a.m. Thursday night, with another slight chance Friday and a high near 72. Saturday is forecast to be cooler, around 70, with a greater—but still uncertain—chance of showers and patchy fog.
The latest outlook provides more detail on the late-week timing than Hoodline’s earlier forecast, which focused on the warm weekend. The rain chances remain slight for now.
Coastal Hazards Are a Separate Concern
The forecast for inland San Jose is dry, but hazardous surf is expected along the coast. The National Weather Service says a Beach Hazards Statement remains in effect through Monday, with 12- to 16-foot breaking waves at exposed beaches, larger waves at favored break points, sneaker-wave danger and stronger rip currents.
A Coastal Flood Advisory also covers vulnerable Bayshore locations through Friday because of elevated tides, according to NBC Bay Area. Those heading to the coast should stay off jetties, rocks, piers and other waterside structures, and avoid entering the water unless experienced in hazardous surf.
