San Diego, California – Mornings in San Diego will start off cloudy with gradual clearing each afternoon, giving residents a taste of classic coastal summer weather through midweek. Patchy fog and increasing clouds are expected to impact visibility for early commuters, especially from Monday night into Wednesday morning.
According to the National Weather Service in San Diego, dense morning clouds and fog will linger until about 11 a.m. each day, followed by mostly sunny conditions and high temperatures reaching the upper 70s near the coast. Winds remain light, shifting westward at 5 to 10 mph, with occasional gusts up to 20 mph on Tuesday.
Drivers along I-5 and I-8 should plan for reduced visibility during early hours, especially in low-lying areas like Chula Vista, National City, and Mission Valley. Residents are advised to use headlights in the fog, allow extra travel time, and check traffic updates before heading out. Utility impacts are unlikely, but cooler mornings may keep AC demand low.
Gradual clearing is expected each afternoon, with sunshine returning in force by Wednesday and highs climbing to 80°F by Thursday. This weather pattern is typical for July, reflecting the persistent “June Gloom” that sometimes lingers into early summer.
Sunny, mild weather should persist through the end of the week, but early risers can expect continued morning clouds. Updates will follow if advisories are issued.
