San Diego, CA — A breezy, cloud-heavy week kicks off Tuesday across coastal Southern California, with wind gusts nearing 30 mph expected to impact San Diego. Commuters along the I-5 corridor and surrounding inland routes should prepare for reduced visibility and minor travel delays, especially during peak wind hours Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons.

These conditions will persist into Tuesday night, with temperatures dropping to the low 50s. Drivers are urged to secure lightweight objects, avoid high-profile vehicles in exposed areas, and use caution on elevated roadways.
Wednesday’s forecast shows partly sunny skies with continued gusts, although slightly milder conditions. By Thursday, a slight chance of showers returns in the evening, accompanied by cooler lows around 48°F. The gusty pattern is expected to relax slightly but remain noticeable through midweek.
Looking ahead, the extended five-day forecast brings some relief. Friday and Saturday will see mostly sunny skies, with highs climbing to the upper 60s. Nights will remain cool, with lows in the high 40s and low 50s.
