The Forecast: Day-by-Day Tonight: Skies will stay mostly clear for most airports, but coastal fog will return to Half Moon Bay, Monterey, and Salinas.  Sunday: High pressure builds in, pushing temperatures higher under sunny skies. The coast will hit the 60s to near 70, while the interior jumps into the mid-70s to mid-80s. Monday (The Warmest Day): The heat peaks at 5 to 10 degrees above average. If the morning fog stays out at sea, even the coastal beaches will enjoy a very warm afternoon. Highs from 67 Beaches to 91 Inland. Tuesday (VOTE!) & Midweek: Temperatures bounce around a bit Wednesday and Thursday depending on how far inland the morning fog pushes. Next Weekend: A new weather system takes aim at the West Coast.
