Sunny Start to December in San Diego With Santa Ana Winds and a Midweek Shower Chance
A new drought update places the county out of official drought, with abnormally dry conditions persisting.
Overview
- Patchy fog affects the coast and valleys late Sunday into Monday morning before clearing to mostly sunny skies.
- Santa Ana winds return Monday, with sustained 10–25 mph breezes and gusts near 35 mph in the mountains, foothills and valleys.
- Temperatures hover near average Monday, turn coolest on Wednesday by roughly five degrees, then gradually rebound into the weekend.
- A slight chance of showers arrives Wednesday evening in and west of the mountains, with snow possible above about 6,500 feet.
- Lower local peaks such as Mt. Laguna and Palomar could see flurries, though forecasters consider that unlikely at this time.
