Good morning, Central Coast!
It was a hot weekend across the Central Coast (and the region) with highs soaring up to record highs on Saturday. Here is a quick look at the regional records from the National Weather Service.
Our highlight... Paso Robles made it to 99° Saturday, passing the previous record of 97° set back in 1997!
Sunday brought some cooling, but with sunshine and warm weather, it was perfect weather to get outside and celebrate Mother's Day!
Today a decaying cold front will make its way through the Central Coast, which will drop temps significantly once again.
Highs today will be 5-8 degrees cooler than normal for this time of year. Very comfortable for sure.
The one little wrinkle in the forecast is the winds. Just like last night, strong sundowner winds are pushing through the region, particularly the south coast. Gusts up to 45 mph are expected along the Gaviota coastline and ridges above Santa Barbara. This has prompted a wind advisory for the south coast through Tuesday morning at 9 a.m. That is an extension from the original alert that was expected to expire Monday morning.
Over the week, we will continue to see cooler weather with a much more moderate warmup into the latter half of the week. Each morning will feature some cloud cover, but on the whole, conditions will remain mild.
Have a wonderful day, and a great week ahead, Central Coast!
