California – A blanket of mist hangs low over San Diego this morning, cutting visibility and dampening roads just as commuters head out. Headlights glow along I-5 and I-805, where patchy fog is already slowing traffic in pockets near the coast.
According to the National Weather Service in San Diego, visibility sits near 5 miles early, with patchy fog lingering through mid-morning before clearing. Skies turn mostly sunny by late morning, pushing temperatures to around 77°F today. Winds stay light, allowing the marine layer to reform quickly after sunset.
The warming trend builds into Tuesday and Wednesday, with highs climbing from the upper 70s to near 81°F. Inland areas like El Cajon and Chula Vista will feel the heat more sharply by afternoon. Coastal neighborhoods stay slightly cooler but still warm under steady sunshine.
Drivers should stay alert each morning through midweek. Fog redevelops before 11 a.m. daily, especially along coastal routes and low-lying areas. Visibility can drop quickly, particularly near river valleys and open stretches of highway.
By Wednesday, March 25, the pattern locks in. Morning fog gives way to bright skies and mild ocean breezes. However, reduced visibility may again impact early commutes before clearing by late morning.
Looking ahead, late-week conditions stay consistent. Patchy fog continues each morning, followed by mostly sunny afternoons with highs in the low 80s.
