The windy conditions will result in clear skies across the central coast. Wednesday morning, satellite data was showing some patchy mid-to-high level cloud cover that will otherwise clear out through the morning commute.
Daytime highs along the coast will be slightly cooler Wednesday, ranging from the upper 50s to mid-60s, while the coastal valley regions will stay between the mid to upper 60s, with the exception of the south coast area, which could reach the upper 70s. Over the inland valleys, expect daytime highs to taper slightly and be closer to the mid to upper 70s.
