A crisp November morning gives way to sunshine and temperatures in the 70s across Sacramento, but a visibility concern is developing.
Patchy fog could affect Monday morning travel before another round of sunshine pushes temperatures higher across California's capital region.
According to the National Weather Service in Sacramento, temperatures will remain near 70 degrees through much of the Veterans Day holiday period.
The outlook brings several favorable afternoons for outdoor activities, followed by increasing rain chances later in the week.
Monday Morning Fog Could Affect Sacramento Drivers The most immediate travel concern arrives early Monday, November 9.
Forecasters expect patchy fog before 7 a.m., followed by mostly sunny skies and temperatures near 70 degrees.
Drivers traveling Interstate 5, Interstate 80 and Highway 99 should remain alert for localized visibility changes.
Fog can develop quickly in low lying areas, particularly near waterways and agricultural land.
Allow additional following distance if visibility becomes restricted.
No widespread dense fog advisory is indicated in the supplied Sacramento outlook.
Temperatures Climb Toward 73 Degrees Tuesday Saturday brings sunshine and a high near 71 degrees.
Sunday remains mostly sunny, with afternoon temperatures reaching approximately 70 degrees.
The warming trend continues Tuesday, November 10, when temperatures could reach 73 degrees.
That would make Tuesday the warmest day in the supplied five day outlook.
For residents managing falling leaves, garden maintenance or outdoor projects, the dry afternoons provide favorable opportunities.
However, nighttime temperatures remain considerably cooler, generally falling into the upper 40s.
Keep a light jacket available for early departures and evening activities.
Veterans Day Brings More Sunshine Wednesday, November 11, brings another pleasant afternoon across Sacramento County and surrounding communities.
Temperatures should reach approximately 71 degrees under sunny skies.
The relatively calm weather could benefit Veterans Day ceremonies, outdoor gatherings and regional travel.
Rain is not indicated through Wednesday in the supplied local outlook.
No snow, freezing temperatures or tornado threat is identified for Sacramento during this period.
Rain Chances Return Later in the Week By Thursday, November 12, the weather pattern begins showing signs of change.
The National Weather Service introduces a slight chance of rain, with temperatures cooling to approximately 68 degrees.
Friday carries another slight rain chance and a high near 66 degrees.
