Happy Saturday, Central Coast!
Wind gusts have been the big story this Saturday for a good chunk of the state. Ahead of these winds, several advisories and warnings were issued due to elevated fire weather concerns. For our region, a Wind Advisory was issued for portions of San Luis Obispo County, which ended at 9 PM today. The High Wind Warning for Santa Barbara County is still in effect until Sunday at 9 PM. Due to the strong wind gusts, there is also a High Surf Advisory (highlighted in green).
Wave heights have been quite impressive. Here is a look at what they were looking like at 9 PM.
Windy conditions will start to weaken into Monday, and in addition, warmer temperatures will follow. Before this, below normal temperatures will continue on Sunday.
Warming trend will begin Monday; once again, the interior valleys will be much hotter.
Enjoy the rest of your evening!
