We ended November with below-average precipitation at San Diego Int'l Airport, recording measurable rain on only 3 days, totaling just 0.13". The usual November average is 0.79", so we're slightly below normal. While it's not the best start to the rainy season, there's still plenty of time to make up for it as the season is just getting underway.
Temperatures will be trending above seasonal norms today, particularly for the inland valleys where there will be a good mix of mid to upper 70s.
At the coast, north winds will generally be from about 10 mph with gusts up to 20 mph. Looking ahead to the rest of the week, better chances of overnight/morning marine layer will be on Tuesday and Wednesday. A Beach Hazards Statement will be in place 6 a.m. Monday through noon Tuesday due to astronomically high tides. That means the Earth, the sun, and the moon are in alignment which cause a stronger gravitational pull. High tides are expected to peak around 8:37 a.m. and be around 6 ft. Minor coastal flooding is possible. Similar conditions are expected on Tuesday.

Meantime, we’re still on track to have some weak offshore flow by the end of the week. Temperatures will warm up too with daytime highs over the inland valleys making a return to the low 80s. Humidity levels will also be on the lower end, which will elevate our fire weather concern.
Also, there’s a good chance stargazers will be able to see Jupiter most of this week. Like the moon, it rises at sunset and sets at sunrise.

- Coast: Mostly Sunny - mid to upper 60s
