San Diego, CA – Soft fog drapes over the harbor this morning, muting the skyline in shades of gray before the Pacific sun cuts through. It’s a familiar early-November rhythm for Southern California — cool starts, warm afternoons, and steady calm between bigger seasonal shifts.
Across the county, patchy coastal fog will linger through mid-morning before skies clear, ushering in several mild, sunny days. Temperatures will reach the low 70s along the coast and mid-70s inland through Thursday, with light winds and dry air making for ideal conditions across the region.
The National Weather Service notes a brief uptick in north winds by late Wednesday and Thursday, particularly in foothill areas and canyons. Gusts could reach 15–20 mph, enough to make afternoon drives a little breezier. Still, skies remain mostly sunny, with only light patchy fog expected late at night and early mornings.
Heading into the weekend, expect continued dry weather, comfortable afternoons, and cool evenings near 60°F. It’s a golden stretch for outdoor projects, coastal runs, or early holiday travel before the next Pacific system nears late next week.
To be fair, San Diego’s “November weather” often doubles as an extended fall encore — the kind of calm, clear pattern that makes locals forget winter is edging closer elsewhere.
So for now, enjoy the sunshine, keep an eye on early morning fog if driving near the bay, and savor what might be one of the last mild weeks before cooler November air moves south.
