Good morning Central Coast!

For yet another morning skies are clear throughout the region as high pressure continues to dominate the forecast. Thankfully temps will not be as high as yeasterday, especially in San Luis Obispo where a high of 100 degrees was recorded by 11 AM Monday.

The overall pattern that produced the offshore winds and high temperatures is still around Tuesday but perhaps just slightly less intense. That being said part of the area is still in a heat advisory with some valleys in an excessive heat warning into Tuesday evening.

There is also a wind advisory for southwest Santa Barbara County from 6:00 PM Tuesday night until 3:00 AM Wednesday morning for winds 20 to 30 mph out of the north gusting to 40 mph.

Offshore winds are strong enough to cancel out the typical cooling we see from the ocean. Basically it is going to be a hot day.

Tuesday's daytime highs look to feature more 80s and 90s for coastal valleys with beaches ranging from the 70s to the middle 80s.

South Coast daytime highs should also reach the 80s. Interior valley temperatures we'll hit the triple digits on Tuesday again with some peak numbers near 105 degrees.

As we look into the later half of the week a low pressure will push into the region and bring with it marine influence and much cooler weather for the Central Coast. Temps will fall dramatically even reaching into the 70s in Paso Robles Saturday.

Temps will slightly increase by early week but will stay far away from the extreme highs of the last few days.

Have a great day Central Coast!
