DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 22-26)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yesterday’s thunderstorm activity fired closer to the coast than I expected and, while still isolated in terms of the entire region, was pretty impactful in the areas that it did impact, especially in terms of road flooding. Unfortunately, heavy rainfall like that does a whole lot of running off and not sinking into the ground to help alleviate developing drought conditions. And even with a few opportunities for additional showers and storms this week, the longer term dry spell will continue. Today begins with an extensive layer of marine air with low clouds over much of the region. Tuesday and Wednesday will also see some marine air to start, with the lower clouds probably confined a little more to coastal locations. These low clouds should burn away each day today and Tuesday but a coastal sea breeze will exist both days as well. During each afternoon today and Tuesday, a few pop up showers and thunderstorms may occur, mostly over interior locations. When we get to Wednesday, with high humidity in place and a cold front arriving from the west, that will be our best chance at a little more widespread shower and thunderstorm activity, with timing of the front playing a roll in both coverage of rainfall and intensity of storms. A couple days to fine-tune that. Drier air arrives behind this front for Thursday, but a small disturbance may bring another round of showers to the region for Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TODAY: Mostly cloudy start, then becoming partly sunny. Isolated afternoon showers and thunderstorms favoring areas away from the coast. Humid. Highs 73-80 coast, 80-88 inland. Wind variable up to 10 MPH with sea breezes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TONIGHT: Partly to mostly cloudy. Patchy fog. Humid. Lows 63-70. Wind variable under 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy start for some locations, otherwise partly sunny. Isolated showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon over inland locations. Humid. Highs 77-84 coast, 85-92 elsewhere. Wind variable up to 10 MPH with sea breezes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TUESDAY NIGHT: Partly to mostly cloudy. Patchy fog. Humid. Lows 65-72. Wind S up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Showers and thunderstorms likely, favoring the afternoon. Humid. Highs 75-85, coolest South Coast. Wind S 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Risk of showers early. Patchy fog. Humid. Lows 63-70. Wind SW up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THURSDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 61-68. Wind W 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
FRIDAY: Variably cloudy. Risk of showers, possibly a few thunderstorms. Highs 78-85. Wind W 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 27 – JULY 1)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Warm front \/ cold front combo may bring some unsettled weather during the June 27-28 weekend. Next front brings a shower\/thunderstorm risk around June 30. Upper low may trigger a few more storms around July 1. Temperatures variable, averaging slightly above normal, but may drop a little below normal at the end of the period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (JULY 2-6)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Zonal flow (from the west, northwest at times). This is a dry pattern overall, but fast-moving disturbance can bring shower and thunderstorm risks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
