.SHORT TERM (Today through Thursday)...
The marine layer is near 2500 to 3000 feet deep with satellite
imagery showing widespread low clouds over the coastal waters
extending well inland across much of the Inland Empire and
eventually across much of the San Diego County valleys.

Low pressure aloft across the southwest states will weaken with a
warming trend for today through the weekend. High temperatures
today will warm slightly at lower elevations to around 5 degrees
for the mountains with as much as another 4 to 8 degrees of
warming on Wednesday for the mountains, deserts, and inland
valleys and with another few degrees of warming on Thursday.

With the warming, high temperatures will go from 5 to 10 degrees
below average for inland areas today to around average for inland
areas on Thursday. With the warming, high temperatures on Thursday
will range from around 70 near the coast to the mid 80s to mid
90s for the Inland Empire with 104 to 108 for the lower deserts.

The marine layer depth will gradually decrease to around 2000 feet
by Thursday with night and morning coastal low clouds spreading
inland into only as far as the western valleys.

.LONG TERM (Friday through Monday)...
A slow warming trend will continue through Sunday with Sunday high
temperatures around 5 degrees above average for inland areas,
ranging from the lower to mid 70s near the coast to upper 80s to
mid 90s for the Inland Empire with 108 to 112 for the lower
deserts. The marine layer will be near 1500 to 2000 feet deep with
night and morning coastal low clouds spreading inland into
portions of the western valleys.
