Good Monday morning,

I hope everyone had a nice weekend.

For the start of the new work week, we will begin a warm up.

Inland areas will be in the 90s where coastal areas will stay in the upper 70s.

Some clouds are drifting up from monsoonal moisture,

Another weekend is upon us. Great weather accompanies it. Of course my definition of great weather is temps in the mid to upper 70s. 

Thank god we pay high taxes to live in this area. If you look around the country, they are having a heat wave and are melting from the high temps. We on the west coast are loving 70s and 80s through the weekend.

Good Thursday morning,

July and the Summer seems to be marching too quickly. 

Our weather pattern has really began to shift to dry and warmer.

Coastal areas are still having fog in the mornings, this will not change through the weekend.

Valleys and foothills are much warmer with summer like conditions and 90s. 

Today the fog is at 2000 feet and clearing will occur late this morning along the coast.

Good Friday morning,

Hot Summer weather has arrived this weekend. It is going to be hot in the valleys and foothills, 90s and 100s.

Coastal still quite warm at highs in the 80s …

I think it will be beach weather …. https://www.weather.gov/lox/

Good morning,

Did you miss me? Sorry for the 10 days off. I was on vacation then had to move into my new house.

Anyway,  Jack is back!!!

For the weather, a summer heat wave is going to be here through the weekend. This spells the story:

You better check your AC, because you will need it this weekend. If you need help call Tony at Beyond Heating and Air.

Good Friday morning, 

The weekend is upon us.....and the foggy weather is improving for us.

High pressure over the 5 corners will squash the marine layer for the weekend. 

This will heat up inland valleys and reduce the fog period along the coast. 

Everyone will see sunshine with the exception of some high clouds from tropical storm Alvin Looking in the pacific.

There are 2 areas that stand out. Hawaii and Cabo. You can see some red blobs popping from the subtropical moisture. 

Good Thursday morning,

Look outside, we have a  sunrise the we can see in Santa Barbara. This is a treat for us, and really just us.

 Santa Ynez, Ventura and most other locations are starting out with low clouds. Clearing there will come quickly.

High pressure has pushed into the south which is keeping the dome of high pressure over us.

Low pressure over Oregon is being pushed to the north into Washington. The only affect for us will be some evening sundowner winds.

This should occur in the Refugio and gavoita area, but could affect us in SB and Goleta. Winds tonight and Friday night around sundown.

Weather wise, we are looking at more sunshine and less fog, through Tuesday at this point.

Good Wednesday morning, 

Another day of drizzle. That will make 3 days in a row of measurable drizzle.

That is quite unusual, even for June. When we look back over the record books for 2019 there is going to be a lot of things that jump out for the rain season.

The good news is, the worst will be over after today. We will actually start to see the sun again in the afternoons.

Temps will begin to climb back to normal by the weekend. 

Still quite a bit of Action in the Pacific. There is a low pressure system in the Pacific Northwest.

Good rain near Hawaii, the first tropical depression near Cabo, but harmlessly spinning in the pacific.

Another wet start to the day.

It has been the dampest June I can remember. Every morning seems to start with drizzle, today is the same.

Streets are all wet again. This trend continues through the week.

Low pressure system is spinning over the pacific northwest, keeping the marine layer strong and temps chilly.

No need for AC this week…you might need an umbrella this morning.

Good Monday morning,

What a treat we had on Saturday and Sunday. The sun started to peak out by 10 am. It made for a great day at the parade.

It was so much fun at the parade watching my 16 month old granddaughter loving the parade.

Today will be the same as yesterday. Sun will come out early and it will be a nice day. Summer weather is starting to arrive.
