San Diego, Calif. – San Diego County is set to experience mild summer weather throughout the week, with a familiar pattern of patchy fog and cloudy mornings followed by clearer skies and warmer afternoons. These conditions will keep temperatures comfortably in the mid-70s along the coast, but reduced visibility could pose challenges for early commuters.
According to the National Weather Service, Sunday will bring gradual clearing by the afternoon, with highs reaching near 74°F. However, fog and low clouds are expected to return Sunday night into Monday, creating a cloudy start to the workweek before clearing later in the day. This pattern of overnight fog and daytime sunshine will persist through Wednesday, providing pleasant conditions for those in the region.
Inland valleys are expected to warm up a bit more by Friday, with temperatures climbing into the upper 70s. The coastal areas, however, will experience more mild and moderate temperatures, maintaining that cool, comfortable summer feeling.
Drivers traveling along major routes like Interstates 5 and 805 should be cautious of reduced visibility during the late-night and early-morning hours, especially on Tuesday. The marine layer, which is common during this time of year, may limit visibility to less than a quarter mile in certain coastal pockets. Those heading to the beaches can expect cooler mornings but will be greeted with warmer and clearer afternoons, ideal for outdoor activities.
This mild stretch of weather is expected to extend into the weekend, with slightly warmer afternoons by Friday and Saturday. Although fog will persist in the early mornings, clear skies are expected by the afternoon, making it perfect for beachgoers and outdoor enthusiasts. Patchy fog advisories may continue through Thursday morning, so residents and travelers should stay informed about visibility conditions.
