California – Soft morning light reflects off calm water in San Diego Bay, and the air feels mild for February. By midday, jackets come off. The warmth is real, but it will not last untouched through the week.
Today stays sunny and warm, with highs climbing into the mid-70s across much of San Diego. Light winds keep conditions comfortable, making it feel more like early spring than winter. Coastal and inland neighborhoods enjoy dry roads and clear skies through the afternoon.
Changes begin tonight. Patchy fog develops after sunset, especially near the coast and low-lying valleys. Visibility may drop quickly at times, creating slick conditions for late-night drivers along I-5 and surface streets near the shoreline.
Tuesday turns mostly cloudy and cooler. Temperatures fall back into the upper 60s. Rain chances increase late Tuesday night, with showers possible after 10 p.m. Wet pavement develops fast, and travel may slow during the late evening and early morning hours.
Wednesday brings the most active weather signal. Showers remain possible through the day, with brief heavier pockets at times. Winds increase slightly during the afternoon, adding a cool edge to the air. While rainfall totals stay modest, roads can remain slick, especially during on-and-off showers.
Conditions gradually improve by Thursday, though a slight chance of showers lingers into the evening. By Friday, sunshine returns, and temperatures rebound into the upper 60s. The broader pattern hints at a warming trend into early next week, signaling a quieter stretch ahead.
Drivers should stay alert during foggy and wet periods, especially after dark. Allow extra stopping distance and slow down on coastal routes.
