Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Diego CA 246 AM PDT Wed Jul 3 2024
SYNOPSIS
A long-duration heat wave will continue for the deserts through at least much of next week. Friday and Saturday are expected to be the hottest days for most areas with the only relief from the heat toward the coast. The marine layer will slow the warming near the coast with night and morning coastal low clouds spreading into the western valleys late each night.
DISCUSSION
FOR EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN CALIFORNIA INCLUDING ORANGE...
SAN DIEGO...WESTERN RIVERSIDE AND SOUTHWESTERN SAN BERNARDINO COUNTIES...
.SHORT TERM (Today through Friday)...
Strong high pressure will be centered along the California coast for Thursday and Friday. High temperatures today will be a few to around 5 degrees warmer than Tuesday, around 10 degrees above average for inland areas. Not much change for Thursday, then several degrees warmer on Friday.
Friday is expected to be the hottest day for many locations, with high temperatures 10 to 15 degrees above average for inland areas, with not much change for Saturday. The forecast high temperature of 123 for Palm Springs on Friday would tie the existing all-time record high temperature, reached most recently on June 17th, 2021.
The marine layer will keep coastal areas from warming as much with night and morning coastal low clouds extending inland to the western valleys at times late each night.
.LONG TERM (Saturday through Tuesday)...
The center of strong high pressure will move slowly toward the south for Sunday through Tuesday. Saturday will be nearly as hot as Friday, then a few to around 5 degrees cooler for the coast and valleys for Sunday and Monday with slight warming for Tuesday.

Coast/Valleys
Low clouds are beginning to fill in over the waters and creep onto the coast early this morning. BKN-OVC clouds based 800-1400 ft MSL will move around 15 miles inland later this morning, before retreating back to the coast 16-18Z Wed. Local VIS 1-3 miles will occur in the coastal valleys and higher coastal terrain until 16Z Wed. Low clouds returning with similar bases after 06Z Thu.
Mountains/Deserts...Mostly clear skies with unrestricted VIS will continue through this evening. Local south/west winds near 20-30 kts at times through the San Gorgonio Pass and above the Cajon Pass 22Z Wed-06Z Thu.
MARINE

BEACHES
A swell of 2-3 feet from 190 degrees with a period of 16-18 seconds will build into SoCal today through the weekend. This will lead to elevated surf with breaking wave heights up to 7 feet, mainly on exposed south and southwest-facing beaches in Orange County. Rip and longshore current risks will be high as well now through next Monday.
CLIMATE
This could be an historic heat wave for portions of the lower deserts in terms of consecutive days of very hot high temperatures.
