Our upper-level pattern remains dominated by a ridge of high pressure near the Four Corners region; this will generate light offshore winds and above normal temperatures. The Pacific Northwest will remain in an active pattern with storms parading inland well to our north, for now. Later in the week, a closed low pressure system will dig south off the California coast and may swing inland over Northern Baja through weekend. This could get close enough for some rainfall, but confidence is low on the track and details at this time. This may open the door for a more active weather patten with cool and unsettled weather possible the following week.

In the meantime, we'll enjoy beautiful fall weather this week as temperatures remain about 5 degrees above average through Wednesday with daytime highs hovering around 60 degrees each day, while overnight lows generally cool to the 30s. Winds will remain light from the east to around 5-10 mph at times, turning southwesterly later this week as the onshore flow returns. Temperatures will also return to normal by next week with a chance of showers by Saturday or Sunday.
