Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service San Diego CA 858 PM PDT Thu May 16 2024

SYNOPSIS
A persistent marine layer will continue into next week with night and morning low clouds expected each day, and limited clearing at the coast. Steady high temperatures are expected through the weekend, with cooling for early next week. Slight warming next Tuesday and Wednesday will be followed by further cooling late next week.

DISCUSSION
FOR EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN CALIFORNIA INCLUDING ORANGE...
SAN DIEGO...WESTERN RIVERSIDE AND SOUTHWESTERN SAN BERNARDINO COUNTIES...

Evening Update...
After another nice day for the mountains and deserts, some partial clearing was also seen for some areas in the Inland Empire and western San Diego County. Temperatures eclipsed the century mark in the lower deserts with Thermal in the Coachella Valley hitting 100 degrees late this afternoon. Clouds will continue to fill back into all areas west of the mountains through the early morning hours on Friday. The deep marine layer will contribute to another round of drizzle in spots by Friday morning. A troughing pattern will continue for much of the next week with areas of gloom west of the mountains and slightly below average temperatures for mountains and deserts. Take a look below for further details.

Previous Forecast Discussion (135 PM Thursday)...

Southern California will remain in a fairly stagnant pattern over the next several days as an upper-level low sits to our west and multiple lows move through the Pacific Northwest. Persistent "May Gray" will continue across the coast and valleys each night and morning with limited clearing expected at the beaches. Patchy drizzle will be possible at times west of the mountains in the early morning hours. Minimal changes in high temperatures are expected through Sunday; highs will top out 2-5 degrees below normal across the coast, valleys and mountains, and up to 5 degrees above average in the deserts.

The low to our southwest will become an open wave and absorb into the mean flow, likely passing over the region Monday. This will lead to an uptick in gusty winds over the mountains and deserts, and lead to slight cooling-region wide. Monday will likely be the coolest day of the week, with highs topping out 3-7 degrees below normal at the coast and in the deserts, and 5-10 degrees below normal in the valleys and mountains. Slight warming is expected for Tuesday and Wednesday. Another deep trough moves down the West Coast by the middle of next week, continuing onshore flow and a deep marine layer over Southern California.
