Temps are falling slightly as rain gears up to move into the region

Good morning, Central Coast!

As we kick off our Tuesday marine layer fog is the name of the game. The marine layer is very "text book" and limiting visibility across all coastal valleys and beaches.

The marine layer is surging onshore so strongly that there is some light drizzle across many coastal valleys this morning. Just something to be aware of.

Temps today are falling once again widening the gap from the triple digit heat felt in the interior valleys this weekend.

Looking into the extended forecast it is going to be an interesting week, the remnants of Tropical Storm Eugene will make a turn towards Baja California and thus will bring a swath of moisture to SoCal. For us that means some slight chances for rain.

A lot of high cloud cover will be associated with the surge and mid-level moisture. I think the best chance of rainfall is at higher elevations in Santa Barbara county, while it is not particularly likely that these will be drift into populated areas it is possible.

Once the remnants of Tropical Storm Eugene dissipate high pressure will build in once again and push interior temperatures back into the low to mid-90s. For most of this week, we'll see temperatures in the interior in the mid-80s with coastal valleys in the 70s and beaches in the 60s.

Have a great day Central Coast!
