Low clouds, patchy drizzle and cooler temperatures are how San Diego County denizens are starting off the last week of summer. Fall officially starts on Saturday, Sept. 23.
Overall, temperatures are running lower than normal for Sunday and Monday across the county, according to NBC 7 meteorologist Greg Bledsoe.
Measurable rainfall fell over the county overnight, continuing to bring patchy drizzle into the morning, Bledsoe adds.
Low clouds so covered the San Diego County region on Sunday morning that one El Cajon resident asked the National Weather Service of San Diego on social media platform X if the fall-like weather means they should grab a pumpkin spice latte as soon as possible.
