Marine Layer & Cloud Clearing: The deep marine layer will trigger pockets of damp coastal drizzle and mist late tonight through the pre-dawn hours. This moisture will easily create slick road conditions and reduced visibilities until about 11:00 AM Saturday along the coast.  Daytime high temperatures will be only a couple of degrees warmer than Friday, well below average in our Inland areas. Expect 60s at the Beaches, 70s Bayshore and up to 83 Inland. Saturday night will have the marine layer pushing onshore reaching the Inland areas overnight with lows in the 50s, few 60s well Inland. Have a wonderful weekend!
