Looking at a nice finish to the week with below normal temperatures and dry weather into the weekend. Weak low pressure along the West Coast will maintain the onshore flow with the marine layer down below and mostly clear skies with gusty west winds at times over the mtns. We'll see a few high clouds through Friday, otherwise fair with highs in the lower to mid-70s, west winds gusting 15-25 mph during the afternoon. Expect mostly sunny days and clear night over the weekend as temperatures increase slightly with highs in the mid-70s Saturday, warming to the upper 70s on Sunday, while overnight lows cool to the 40s. High pressure will expand westward back over the region next week bringing a gradual warm-up, even sign we could see a little monsoon moisture return later in the week.
