Before we get into your full weather report, check out the photo snapped of Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS! It was first discovered in 2023, but on Oct. 12, it was as close as it would be to earth for the next 80,000 years — although, it is still 44 million miles away.

If you didn't see it Saturday night, not all hope is lost. From now through Oct. 26, if you look just above the horizon to your west a little after sunset, or above the horizon to your east a little before sunrise, you might catch a glimpse.

Ok, let's talk weather.

What a difference a week makes. Last weekend we were talking about several heat alerts for the region, now we are seeing temperatures trending below seasonal average.

On Saturday, daytime highs dropped about five degrees in 24 hours. Sunday should see a similar swing.

Coastal and inland neighborhoods will wake up to a light cloud cover and patchy fog, but that eventually clears out to match the mostly sunny conditions seen across the rest of the county.

While temperatures are a few degrees below average on the coast and inland, they remain a few degrees above average in the mountains and desert.

Expect a cooldown across the board over the next several days, with everyone dipping below normal for this time of year by Thursday. That's also when slight chances of rain return in the morning along the coast and inland.

Sunday's Highs: 
Coast: 66-74°
Inland: 74-82°
Mountains: 74-82°
Deserts: 92-97°
