California’s coastline is glowing under filtered sunshine, and San Diego is already climbing through the upper 50s after a mild start. A light breeze brushes the bay, and visibility remains clear along I-5 and Harbor Drive. Jackets feel optional by midday as temperatures rise quickly.
According to the National Weather Service in San Diego, highs reach near 68 degrees today with light south winds shifting west at 5 to 10 mph this afternoon. Clouds increase tonight with lows around 54. By Thursday, morning clouds give way to sunshine and a high near 71, though northwest winds could gust up to 30 mph in the afternoon.
Friday turns brighter and warmer. Highs push near 72 with north winds at 5 to 15 mph. Saturday brings peak spring warmth, topping out near 75 under full sun. If you have beach or park plans, conditions look ideal through late afternoon.
Changes arrive Sunday. A slight chance of showers develops after 10 a.m., with highs near 74. Roads like I-8 and I-805 could turn slick during any brief showers. Plan extra time if traveling late morning into early afternoon.
Statewide, a stronger cold front pushes through the Rockies with mountain snow, while Southern California stays mild. That broader pattern supports above-normal temperatures into early next week. Monday stays mostly sunny near 71, and Tuesday climbs toward the upper 60s.
