Spot On. The Greydom is Here, but a Chance for Sun Lingers.

It cleared out late yesterday.  Like completely.  It was very nice up the coast around 5PM yesterday.  And that ocean water has certainly warmed up with that south flow.  So, that was nice.  Upper 60s this afternoon.  Some clearing began around 2PM, but it is slow going, and there is barely a patch of blue over the west side and downtown as of now.  Might not see a full burn off today, but we do still have a load of sunlight left.  It is early June after all.  Pretty much the same for tomorrow, but with a slight bit more warmth.  Let's say 70F.  Then things really start to change, and you will feel lucky that you live here on the coast and not in the Central Valley.  In case you are not already.


The Hook has been the place to chill recently.  Blocked from the wind and fun wave to watch.

Warming trend to peak on Saturday, again.  We are not going to get quite as warm as last weekend here in Santa Cruz, but inland they should see the hottest daytimes highs thus far this season.  Could top over 110F in Tracy, and get on the plus side of 100F in Concord.  90s in Saratoga and upper 80s in SJ. Mid to upper 70s right here on the coast with much warmer temps as you start to move up the hill.  But, first, let's look at the rest of the work week.  Things start to warm up on Thursday, but another foggy day keep the heat away from us.  Light winds continue from the south, with slight clearing late.  New super long period south swell fills in, so pay attention to the ocean if you are down along the water's edge.  Occasional moderate swells will sweep well up the beaches, and up over rocks and low lying bluffs.  Clearing as early as late morning.  Winds stay light and

More of the same on Friday.  Right now it looks like when the fog pulls out Friday, it may just stay out for the weekend.  I know a few folks who enjoy the sunshine.  Mid to upper 70s along the coast and into the 80s in town.  Light winds continue.  A bit of a cool down for Sunday, but again, looks like continues sunshine.  Winds begin to shift to a more westerly flow in the afternoon with a little sea breeze.  Marine layer returning to start the next work week.  And the long term models suggest another week of grey.  But I am not even counting on this weekend's forecast yet.  Still, I am starting to lay some plans just in case it is right.
