California sunshine is fading fast this morning as clouds thicken over San Diego and the air turns damp ahead of incoming February rain. Pavement is still dry now, but that changes by Sunday afternoon as showers push inland and spread across the county.
According to the National Weather Service in San Diego, rain chances increase to 90 percent by Sunday night, with widespread showers likely into Monday. Highs reach near 67 degrees today under mostly sunny skies, then ease to the mid-60s Sunday before slipping into the lower 60s by Tuesday. Rain becomes more steady late Sunday and continues through President’s Day Monday, when breezy conditions develop along the coast.
Drivers along I-5, I-8 and Highway 163 should plan for wet roads and reduced visibility by Sunday evening. Allow extra time for coastal travel and watch for ponding during heavier bursts. Gusty onshore winds could make bridges and elevated roadways slick.
Showers linger into Tuesday morning before gradually tapering. By Wednesday and Thursday, rain chances decrease, though clouds may hang around. Temperatures hold in the upper 50s to low 60s through midweek.
Looking ahead, broader signals point to above-normal temperatures building later next week, hinting at early spring vibes across Southern California as President’s Day Week unfolds.
