Happy Sunday, Central Coast!
The low-pressure system that brought some showers to California has moved southeast of the region.
As the upper low begins to exit the state, warm air aloft will move into the area.
Winds have been the main story throughout the weekend, and so far, a northerly flow is occurring around the upper low and has managed to clear most clouds. But the upper low brought drizzle to the deep interior.
A moderate northwest flow along the Central Coast should keep things fairly well mixed tonight and Monday, with minimal marine layer stratus expected and mild temperatures.
A large north-to-northwest swell associated with the low-pressure system will bring high surf to the Central Coast and Ventura County Beaches this evening through Monday morning.
The High Surf Advisory for San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties ends at 9 a.m., Monday, May 5, 2025.
High surf is expected to peak Sunday morning and afternoon, then subside.
High pressure will slowly build into the area from Tuesday into Wednesday with a very slight warming trend.
However, low clouds and fog are expected to spread back north towards the Central Coast as northwest flow weakens and the marine inversion returns.
The interior will begin a warming trend by Wednesday as the ridge of high pressure strengthens.
A warm weather pattern is expected across the interior valleys by late week, with daytime highs reaching near 90 degrees.
Have a great week, Central Coast!
