Overview: Highs probably won't get out of the 60s Tuesday and Wednesday, but should probably get into the 80s by this weekend. There will be lots of chances for showers and clouds as well this week.
Quick forecast:
Tuesday: Cloudy, highs around the mid-60s, chance for showers. My rating: 6.5/10.
Tuesday night: Cloudy, lows around the mid-50s, chance for showers.
Wednesday: Cloudy, highs in the mid to upper-60s, chance for showers. My rating: 7/10.
Detailed forecast:
Through tonight (Monday): Rain will continue overnight, with an occasional moderate to heavy shower possible into the early morning. Lows are in the mid to upper-50s with northeastern winds at around 5 mph. Confidence: Medium-High.
Tomorrow (Tuesday): Showers may carry on into the morning, but should mainly end before noon with a slight chance for a shower the rest of the day. Eastern winds at 5-10 mph will bring cool ocean moisture which should, along with cloudy skies, keep highs only around the mid-60s. Confidence: Medium-High.
Tomorrow night: A chance for showers or maybe a drizzle still along with cloudy skies and lows around the mid-50s as winds come from the east at around 5 mph. Confidence: Medium-High.
Wednesday: The low-pressure area (which will bring us more rain tomorrow (Tuesday) will remain parked offshore. This will lead to a chance for more showers or drizzles along with cloudy skies and highs in the mid to upper-60s. Winds will also continue to come out of the east at 5-10 mph. Confidence: Medium.
Wednesday night: Lows dip down to around 60 as shower chances and clouds linger. Winds will be from the east at around 5 mph. Confidence: Medium.
Thursday: The low-pressure area should move to the north, which should give us a little bit more sunlight. It will also help highs get into the mid-70s and possibly the upper-70s along with showers and possibly thunderstorms in the afternoon. Winds may also be a bit breezy at around 10 mph. Confidence: Medium.
Thursday night: A chance for showers overnight into early Friday under mostly cloudy skies with lows around the mid-60s as winds blow from the southeast at 5-10 mph. Confidence: Medium.
