San Francisco, CA – The Bay wakes to soft mist and glowing city lights this Sunday morning, a calm prelude to a stretch of warm, clear days ahead. After days of lingering marine layer, sunshine is set to take over by late morning — but that won’t last forever.
According to the National Weather Service in San Francisco, high pressure is settling over the region, clearing skies and lifting temperatures into the low to mid-70s Sunday and upper 70s by Monday. Light winds will make both days ideal for outdoor plans, from coastal hikes to patio brunches. Commuters on I-280 and Highway 101 can expect mostly dry, bright travel conditions through Tuesday.
By midweek, however, subtle changes begin to stir. Clouds return to the Bay Area Wednesday, with highs dipping back into the upper 60s. Model guidance shows a potential for light rain developing Friday into Saturday — the first sign of a broader Pacific shift toward cooler, wetter air. While totals look minor, early moisture could hint at the region’s first measurable precipitation since early fall.
Residents planning outdoor projects or Halloween decorations should use the next two days for dry weather. After all, this stretch of golden afternoons may be one of the last before late October brings its familiar gray edge back to the coast.
