| Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Francisco CA 951pm PDT Sunday May 10 2026 Issued at 845pm PDT Sunday May 10 2026 We're keeping an eye on the marine layer tonight as it continues blossom along the coast. It should deepen to about 1000ft tonight, which will bring low clouds into portions of the interior valleys. Guidance shows the clouds mixing out by mid to late morning, which may impact high temperatures tomorrow. .SHORT TERM... Issued at 1252pm PDT Sunday May 10 2026 (This evening through Monday) Temperatures this afternoon are struggling to reach their forecasted highs. This is as a deeper marine layer around 1500 ft in the North Bay and 2000 ft in the Bay Area and Central Coast developed overnight. Again, where cloud cover lingers or is slow to dissipate across inland areas is where we are most likely to see cooler temperatures than previously forecasted. That said, inland clearing will still allow for temperatures to warm this afternoon as high pressure to the south of the region continues to strengthen. Overnight, temperatures will cool into the upper 40s to mid 50s across most valley locations. Meanwhile, the higher ridges and peaks will likely bottom out in the upper 50s to 60s. If persistence holds, low clouds will fill back inland overnight, yet not expecting as much of an inland penetration as the marine layer is still on track to compress. Monday is still on track to be the warmest day of the week, yet we are seeing less widespread Moderate HeatRisk across the interior. Mondays afternoon maximum temperatures are expected to be in the mid 80s to lower 90s across the interior with cooler conditions near the coast as a shallow marine layer and onshore flow will persist. However, these temperatures could be off by a few to several degrees where cloud cover develops and lingers. Tricky forecast as high pressure aloft supports warming afternoon temperatures, yet the marine influences have been winning out. Long Term Issued at 1252pm PDT Sunday May 10 2026 (Monday night through next Saturday) The pattern begins to shift Monday night into Tuesday as a trough of low pressure approaches the Pacific Northwest and northern California. Thus, temperatures will cool by several degrees on Tuesday, yet are likely to remain above seasonal averages. A cut-off low pressure system is forecast to develop and move inland Tuesday night and into Wednesday bringing even cooler and unsettled weather to the region. We are still expecting drizzle and/or light rain Tuesday night through Thursday morning as a result of the mid/upper level cut-off low moving inland across northern California or the Bay Area. Rainfall amounts generally will remain less than a few hundredths of an inch or so. More of a zonal flow returns by late week and will persist through the upcoming weekend. This will result in a warming and drying trend through this timeframe. Marine (Tonight through next Saturday) Issued at 845pm PDT Sunday May 10 2026 Moderate seas and a fresh to strong northwest breeze with isolated near gale force gusts continuing through tonight. Winds ease late tonight across the inner waters then across the outer waters tomorrow becoming a moderate to fresh northwest breeze. Seas subside in response, but remain moderate with 4 to 5 foot seas by mid week.Locally gusty conditions are likely across the San Pablo and San Francisco Bays where terrain promotes wind funneling. Winds increase and seas build again late Wednesday into Thursday. NOAA San Francisco Bay Area Office: Watches - Warnings - Advisories CA...None.
