According to the weather service’s models, that trend could continue through the weekend unless ridging develops, which would allow the fog in inland areas of the city to burn off earlier in the morning, increasing temperatures throughout the day.
The rest of the Bay Area is expected to continue to see highs in the low to mid-70s closer to the coast, and push into the 80s farther inland. The southernmost parts of Monterey and San Benito counties could hit 90 degrees over the weekend, Kennedy said.
Starting next week, the whole region is expected to warm up a few degrees.
“While we’re still expecting those more gloomy mornings to continue, we are expecting clearing to occur mid- to late morning instead of late morning or in some cases early afternoon,” she said. “[That] should give you a bit more sunlight.”
What the weather will look like next week is pretty up in the air, Kennedy said. Right now, weather models aren’t predicting either very high or low pressure trends, leaving the forecast in limbo.
But Kennedy said those hoping to be rid of foggy conditions for good should probably dampen their expectations: “Unfortunately, it’s the time of year for June gloom,” she said.
