A high-pressure system has brought dry and comparatively warm weather back to soggy San Diego. But it could begin to fade by the time the last Oscar is given out Sunday night during the Academy Awards ceremony.
It had previously appeared that the county would enjoy 7 to 10 days of mostly fair weather. But the National Weather Service says the latest models suggest that storms passing to the north will make conditions cloudier and cooler in San Diego early next week.
Offshore winds also are expected to begin blowing Monday and last into Tuesday, with gusts upward of 50 mph near the border of San Diego and Imperial counties and 20 mph at the coast.
San Diego’s daytime high will be 66 Saturday and Sunday, 65 Monday and Tuesday, and 67 Wednesday. The seasonal high is 67. So far this month, the daytime high is running about 2 degrees below average.
The weather service said San Diego International Airport has recorded 10.37 inches of precipitation since the rainy season began Oct. 1. That’s 0.58 inches more than the airport averages during that season, which spans the year from Oct. 1 to Sept. 30.
