Looking ahead: We are in a tug-of-war between high pressure trying to heat things up and the "marine layer" (our coastal fog) trying to keep us cool. While Monday is still technically the warmest day of the week, the ocean air is winning more battles than expected, keeping temperatures a bit lower than original "heatwave" predictions. Monday Forecast: The Warmest Day The Forecast: It’s a "tricky" one. If the clouds clear out early, inland areas will reach the mid-80s to low 90s. However, if the fog lingers like it did today, we could stay several degrees cooler. The Coast: Expect much cooler conditions in the 60s and 70s thanks to a persistent ocean breeze and shallow fog. Heat Risk: The risk of heat-related illness is now less widespread than previously thought, but it will still feel quite toasty in the far interior valleys.
