Good Wednesday morning,
Mid way through another week, with our weather changing slightly from off shore to on shore again.
The next few days will be cooler once again with some night and morning clouds. It will also be cooler the next few days with highs only in the low 70s.
“Just perfect weather in my book.“
Our back and forth pattern will continue to change from on shore to off shore.

Lots of 1’s in the date today and happy Veteran's Day.
Sunday was quite a bit cooler than Saturday thanks to onshore flow returning.

All week long will play out with slightly warmer days followed by slightly cooler as high and low pressure changes position.

Good Saturday morning,
What a way to start a Saturday in November 9, 2019. The light of day has arrived and the sun will be heating us up for a fantastic summer time weekend.
Today we will have a moderate off shore flow that will kick temps for all into the low to upper 80s.
Offshore winds will affect areas to the south in all Santa Ana wind prone areas, but they should be moderate with winds 10 to 20 miles an hour and gusts to 30 miles an hour.

Good Thursday morning,
As mentioned earlier in the week, there is no excitement in the weather front.
Only weather to brag about if you have friends and family in other parts of the country, where cold is taking over.
If anyone was to take a vacation for the next week, I do not think there is a better place to do it then Santa Barbara Or Santa Ynez wine country.
