Chilly mornings and warmer days will be the trend into the weekend, with a subtle and short-lived warming pattern into Sunday and Monday. Patchy morning fog will be possible for the coast and valleys, and there will be a mix of sun and clouds during the day.
Sunday and Monday will be the warmest days ahead when temperatures will be 5 to 15 degrees above average, while some mountain areas will be close to 20 degrees above average! Expect mid-60s to low-70s at the coast, low to upper-70s inland, 60s in the mountains, and 80s in the deserts.
A series of storms will bring heavy rain to Northern California into next week, where some areas may get up to 10" of rain. That storm will weaken as it moves south but it is looking more likely that Southern California will see rain next week. Locally, there is a chance of showers as early as Tuesday evening, with scattered showers Wednesday and a slight chance of showers to linger into Thursday morning.
Temperatures dip by 5 to 20 degrees by Wednesday compared to Sunday and Monday, but this will be a relatively warm storm, so no mountain snow is expected.
