Another cool day is expected across the region with lingering cloud cover. Temperatures will likely warm into the upper 50s to lower 60s across much of the region with isolated pockets nearing 70 degrees.
In the wake of the exiting storm, high pressure will move in from the eastern Pacific, resulting in a gradual warming trend over the next few days and weak offshore winds, mainly in the higher elevations beginning tonight.
With offshore winds aloft, only a few clouds are expected tonight, becoming clear by late evening. Temperatures on Wednesday night into Thursday will be in the 40s across the interior and lower 50s around the San Francisco Bayshore and coastal areas.
The highest peaks across the region may drop into the upper 30s. On Thursday, temperatures will warm into the upper 60s near the coast to lower 70s inland with mostly sunny skies by the afternoon, about 5 to 10 degrees below average.
