Good Monday Morning,

Today at my house we are starting out with dampness and drizzle. It is wet out there for some coastal locations. My camera even spotted a raccoon on my steps this morning.

Today we find some low clouds and drizzle along the coast and high clouds from former hurricane Marie. This is really not going to do much to our weather, just a tropical look.

Good Wednesday morning, 

Lots going on in the news, but the weather will be as predicted in the past week.

Today is the last day of the month and Thursday brings us the full Harvest moon. This will be able to be seen by all since there will be no fog Thursday morning.

Rise early and check it out. Attached is what it looked like this morning at 4:30am.

Good Tuesday morning,

If you are waking in Santa Barbara, you see quite a bit of fog. The fog, however, is 500 to 800 feet thick today so a faster burn off is likely. 

If your in the valleys, get ready for very hot temps with upper 90s for you over the next 4 days:

In Santa Barbara a warm up is happening, but not as much due to the fog. Low 80s for us today.

Tonight, however, some light sundowner winds will make the coast clear on Wednesday morning.

Good Friday morning, 

The power outage yesterday delayed the Thursday weather till 5 pm, but was written at 5 am.

Hopefully you will get it on time today 🤔

What a perfect night on Thursday. Perfectly calm winds and warm. It was great sitting on the deck watching a great game between the Lakers and Denver.

With Laker prevailed, after a great game. Denver made it exciting, game 5 Saturday night, 3-1 Lakers.

Good Thursday morning, 

There is not much of a change since Wednesday’s forecast. We will do a quick update.

A weak low pressure system is sweeping down from the northwest. This really is not going to affect us much. A few degrees of cooling through Friday.

Happy Equinox day. This comes spring and fall every year. 12 hours of day light and 12 hours of darkness.

Winter months are lurking in our future, however, you are not going to know this over the next 7 days.

Good Friday morning, 

The weekend is nearing, which is always more relaxing than the work week.

Today we are starting out with warmer mornings due to Karina throwing mid to high clouds over us, and pushing the smoke East.

Good Thursday Morning,

Yes, I got up way too early this morning . “ If bars were open, I got up before last call “ I am going to need a nap today.

Today I have good news with the smoke. Karina is arriving and pushing all the smoke to the East.

There is also another system moving into the Pacific northwest that will douse the fires there.
