Overview

  • San Francisco has not exceeded 65°F since June 3, amounting to nearly two weeks of below-normal temperatures.
  • An expanding high-pressure ridge will push inland highs into the 80s Tuesday and possibly the 90s Wednesday while the coast remains cool.
  • The marine layer will compress but persist during the midweek warm spell before temperatures decline again by Thursday.
  • Long-range models suggest cooler-than-normal conditions will persist across the Bay Area through the middle of next week.
  • Friday and Saturday will bring windier weather with gusts of up to 40 mph as a Pacific system moves through Northern California.
