Temperatures slow to warm into weekend

Each day this week has been warmer than the day prior. Temperatures climbed into the mid 70s this afternoon. An average high for the date is 79°.

An approaching low pressure system will bring rain and snow to Northern California but our desert experience will be much drier. Wind speeds will strengthen through Friday afternoon with gusts near 30 MPH.

A continued slow warming will take place this week, nearing 80° on Saturday. Temperatures will continue to climb 5-10° above normal through next week.

Weak Santa Ana winds will be a contributing factor to the continued warming trend through the middle of next week. Expect low humidity and highs in the mid and upper 80s.
