A Pacific storm system will pass inland to our north today, strengthening the onshore flow for gusty west winds and a few high clouds. Otherwise, expect mostly sunny skies with highs in the upper 50s to lower 60s. High pressure will strengthen through the end of the week, leading to unseasonably warm and dry weather. Daytime highs will top out in the 60s to around 70 degrees by Friday, with overnight lows generally in the 30s. West to northwest winds will also continue around 5-15 mph at times. Tad cooler over the weekend as high pressure begins to buckle, allowing a weak low to approach the California coast. This system will pass inland through the region next week, bringing cooler temperatures and gusty west winds. Forecast models even generate some light precipitation across the region, but confidence remains low at this time. Longer range appears dry through the first week of March, with a pattern change possible around mid-month.
