A bubble of warm air is overhead and that will allow the temperature to shoot up into the 70s this morning and then level out in low 80s this afternoon as a cold front moves through. That cold front will bring us gusty north winds to 25 mph after 2pm. Clouds will gradually thicken up this afternoon, too.
Tomorrow's temperatures will be back to near-normal with readings in around 70, then we'll be back to the upper 70s on Thursday.
The atmosphere moistens up Friday with an increase in the cloud cover and by late in the day there will be an increasing chance of rain. There will be a few showers Friday night into Saturday morning morning and then the clouds will thin out Saturday afternoon.
The sea-surface temperatures of the northeast Pacific Ocean are cooling down and will bring us a dramatic shift in weather towards the end of the month - and set us up for a colder-than-normal November, December, January and February.
