A slight warming trend got underway Friday, but temperatures are expected to get even warmer by Monday.

Northerly offshore pressure gradients tighten a bit tonight and again Saturday night, leading to really gusty winds in southern Santa Barbara County.

Friday night's sundowner wind event will be slightly stronger and more widespread than Saturday night.

A Wind Advisory issued for the Santa Barbara County south coast and Santa Ynez range with emphasis on western areas from Gaviota to the San Marcos Pass.
