California – A cool, faintly glowing dawn settles over San Diego this morning as thin clouds drift inland and dampen the early commute. The pavement carries a wet sheen from passing showers, and drivers heading toward I-5, I-15, and SR-163 will feel slower travel building as Thanksgiving plans ramp up one week out. Even light rain can create quick merge delays across canyon routes and coastal stretches.
According to the National Weather Service, scattered showers continue through midday as a moist south wind nudges instability into the region. Winds may briefly gust near 20 to 25 mph, especially along higher terrain. Residents making airport runs or early holiday trips should prepare for quick shifts in visibility and occasional slick patches where drizzle thickens.
Showers grow more organized later today, and models hint at a slight chance for a rumble of thunder inland. To be fair, temperatures stay mild, but this unsettled stretch marks the broader November transition now taking shape nationwide. Early-winter signals continue to strengthen, with the potential for heavy snow—in the 3–15 inch range—across parts of the Northwest, Midwest, and Northeast between Nov. 25 and Dec. 3. Anyone flying out of SAN toward Denver, Chicago, or Minneapolis should monitor for ripple delays.
Locally, Friday stays showery through the afternoon before clouds begin to break. Saturday warms under steadier sunshine, setting up good conditions for leaf cleanup, outdoor decorating, or short-distance travel. Sunday turns bright and calm with a mild breeze.
