Good Morning Central Coast!
The weekend had a few very welcome pockets of sunshine but the overwhelming pattern was that well known "June Gloom". The scattered showers we were expecting rolled through the region consistently bringing most communities a few hundredths of an inch of rain. Our one piece of good forecast "luck" is that the area of strong thunderstorms that was foretasted to set up shop over San Luis Obispo County stayed just offshore. This brought quite the light show to Pismo Beach and surrounding beach towns but thankfully didn't impact us too much.
Rain totals can be found here.
Looking into the work week low pressure is continuing to linger across the west coast, this means more cloud cover and cool/showery conditions through the day today into early Tuesday morning, before we see an onshore flow pattern really set up.
Low cloud cover and dense fog pressing into the coastal valleys is bringing light mist across many communities pre-dawn but will clear out as the fog does by mid morning.
Today temps will stay on the cool side. Most locations in the 60s with interiors in the 70s.
More cloud cover is expected in the coastal valleys over the next few days and there is likely to be some drizzle associated with them, similar to this morning. That will keep temps on the low side each day through the forecast for the coastal valleys and beaches. The interiors will be a different story.
Onshore winds are weakening slightly and that will allow for some clearing in the interior valleys. That will allow significant clearing and warming in the interiors. Temps will climb from the 70s to the 80s over the next few days.
Later this week into the weekend another weak low-pressure system that will approach the area, as it will bring a return of cool and showery weather.
Have a great day Central Coast!
