Warming trend expected into the weekend due to weak Santa Ana winds
Dry and warm weather should stick around for the rest of the week and make for a warmer than normal December weekend.
SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) -- Dry and warm weather should stick around for the rest of the week and make for a warmer than normal December weekend.
Morning clouds cleared up Wednesday with the exception of the immediate coastline early into afternoon. The low clouds and fog will return early Thursday morning but look to stay more confined to the coast for early Friday morning.
After Wednesday afternoon, temperatures will take on a warming trend thanks to weak Santa Ana winds on Friday and Saturday. Northeast winds along and near the coastal mountain slopes could gust up to 35 miles-per-hour.
Thursday's daytime highs will top out in mid 60s for the coast, low 70s for inland valleys, upper 60s for the mountains, and low 80s for the deserts.
The region will feel much warmer than normal for this time of year heading into the weekend as some areas like El Cajon could get 80-degree weather on Saturday.
These temperatures will be as much as 10 to 15 degrees above average for the valleys.
