Good morning, Central Coast!
The weekend was a bit of a mixed bag, rain on Saturday with sunshine moving in Sunday. Here is a look at the rain totals.
As we kick off a new work week clear skies are a good sign but it is not all good. Clear and calm conditions in some sheltered interior valleys is causing temps to drop into the low 30s this morning.
Frost is possible through 8 a.m. for interior valleys.
On Saturday, a cold storm system moved across the Central Coast and shifted east. This system left behind cooler temperatures and gusty west-to-northwest winds. Sunday was still on the cold side with gusty winds but we will start to warm today and through the extended forecast.
A wind advisory is in place for our south coast from 4 pm this afternoon through 3 a.m. Tuesday morning. I would be surprised if this isn't extended through for similar conditions tomorrow night.
Temps will near the 70s in most of our coastal valleys with temps a touch warmer in the interiors, cooler at the beaches. We know the drill.
Temperatures will increase a little Tuesday and Wednesday as a high-pressure ridge over the eastern Pacific nudges closer to the coastline. Temps will not be quite as warm at the coast which, despite the light offshore flow, will still get a decent sea breeze each afternoon. While ocean temps will mostly be in the high 50s, that sea breeze will cut into the temperatures quite a bit near the coast.
Here is a look at the 7 day forecast!
One final thing before you go, there is a big severe weather threat today across the central plains. Tornadoes, hail, damaging winds and more are expected. These storms will make headlines. Here is a quick look at that.
Have a great day Central Coast!
