Tonight into early Saturday we drop into the lower to mid-40s away from the coast and lower 50s along the beaches.

Onshore winds will develop overnight and linger through the weekend. Highs on Saturday will only be in the lower 60s. Sunshine will emerge well inland. However, we will still see some clouds along the coast and an opportunity for a coastal shower.

Back to work and school will be mild and dry with calm winds and temperatures on Monday near 70, warming to the upper 70s on Tuesday.
