.DISCUSSION...
Dry with coastal breezes early in the week will give way to
warmer and moister conditions mid week as high pressure moves
offshore and a weak storm system impacts the area. Drier
conditions will then return this weekend. Significant rainfall is
not expected through the period with amounts mainly around 0.5
inches or less.
Fog potential for tonight is None.
