Note how we warm into the weekend, the cool to much below average early next week.. guess what happens if we were to extend this.. it warms again.. the rollercoaster continues on temps.

This tropical depression will likely become "Alvin" on Thursday. It'll weaken as it hits the Gulf of California but some of this moisture will leak into the SW over the weekend and early next week.

I talked about this last night, the developing tropical storm in the East Pacific Basin. The hurricane season here begins earlier than the Atlantic (May 15th). Storm leftovers will leak into Mexico and the southern border areas of the U.S.

The ridge of high pressure and an upper low are both in the region through Friday. The low may pull up some moisture for some showers later Saturday. Then another upper low drifts in next week but this one will cool us down.

Parade weather Saturday for Santa Maria. Mild temps and sun, but later in the day a few showers can't be ruled out, a minor chance.

A ridge of high pressure is getting stronger over the Central Coast compressing the atmosphere and launching warmer temps. But cooler-than-average conditions develop early next week. ksby.com/weather/adviso…

Yes, hot tomorrow away from the beaches, but look how much cooler early next week is before more warming. The rollercoaster ride on temps continues.

Thoughts? Are happy hours dead? If so, what killed them? COVID, remote work, downsizing, Gen. Z doesn't drink as much, work-life balance? slate.com/life/2025/05/h…

No huge trend in the forecast with some on and off June Gloom. The interior temps should jump a bit more on Tuesday (back into the 80s).

Here is a look at the hourly temps for key climate types for Tuesday, warmer inland but coastal temps may not move much over Monday's highs.
