DISCUSSION
OFFSHORE FLOW TODAY WILL ALLOW THINGS TO WARM UP AGAIN, BUT IT
LIKELY TURNS ONSHORE AGAIN SAT NIGHT/SUN AS ANOTHER DRY TROUGH SWINGS THROUGH.
THIS SHOULD BRING SOME HIGH CLOUDS AND COOLER TEMPS SUNDAY, BUT MARINE LAYER
SHOULD REMAIN BELOW BURN ELEVATION AND CLOSER TO COAST. WARMER, DRY
AFTERNOONS ARE EXPECTED MON/TUE. NEXT RAIN POTENTIAL WILL BE WITH A STRONGER
TROUGH TUE NIGHT/WED, BUT PRECIP CHANCES ARE STILL ONLY AROUND 30%. THIS
WILL USHER IN COOLER, MARINE AIR WED-FRI AND AT LEAST A SLIGHT CHANCE OF
SHOWERS. WETTING RAIN IS NOT A HIGH LIKELIHOOD IN THIS SCENARIO, BUT IF IT
WERE TO OCCUR, IT'S MOST LIKELY ON WEDNESDAY.
