| Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Francisco CA 1202am PDT Sat Jun 13 2026 ...New SHORT TERM, Long Term .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 1201am PDT Sat Jun 13 2026 - Continued hot and dry today for interior communities with Moderate HeatRisk. - Minor coastal flooding due to higher than normal high tides anticipated across coastal regions of the San Francisco Bay Area and Central California Coast. - Hazardous beach conditions return by Sunday with increased risk of sneaker waves and strong rip currents. .SHORT TERM... Issued at 1201am PDT Sat Jun 13 2026 (Sunday night through next Friday) Overcast conditions are blanketing the entire Pacific coast along Sonoma County through Monterey County this early Saturday morning. The stratus has spilled through the Golden Gate, and is also expanding through the Salinas Valley. Nearly all airports are running cooler compared to this time 24 hours ago throughout the region, including inland terminals such as Livermore and Concord. The healthy onshore gradient of +3.4 mb from SFO to SAC will help expand the stratus as he night progresses. Upper-level ridge remains over the eastern Pacific with northwest flow aloft prevailing over the Golden State. For this afternoon, expect seasonable temperatures along the immediate Pacific coast with temperatures in the 60s and 70s, while communities away from the oceanic influence will be much warmer in the 80s to near 100 degrees for far inland locations. While there will be a few degrees of cooling realized today, HeatRisk for the interior East Bay and South Bay will remain in the Moderate category. As a result, a Heat Advisory continues for these locations through 7 PM PDT this evening. High tide flooding will continue to occur nightly along the low- lying areas of the Bayshore and the Pacific Coast through the middle of next week. The combination of an upcoming new moon and lunar perigee on Sunday, about 7 inches of additional tidal anomaly from a combination of storm surge, thermal expansion of the Eastern Pacific, and about 2 inches inches of Sea Level Rise since the vertical datums were established in the 80s and 90s will add up to bring tides up to 2.0 feet above normal through early next week. While lower than the historic tidal flooding in January (peaked at 2.6 ft) the tides this weekend could end up being the highest observed in the Summer, beating the current record of 1.7 ft from July 2022. Long Term Issued at 1201am PDT Sat Jun 13 2026 (Sunday night through next Friday) By Sunday and Monday, the grasp of the eastern Pacific ridge will fade as it flattens, courtesy of an Aleutian low. The end result for us will be a subtle (and welcomed) day-to-day cooling for interior communities and the usual June stratus along the Pacific Coast. The ridge will attempt to rebuild around Tuesday/Wednesday, which may mark the end of the cooling trend for inland areas. Marine (Tonight through next Thursday) Issued at 946pm PDT Fri Jun 12 2026 A gentle southerly breeze and moderate to rough seas with a low south southwest swell persist across most of the coastal waters. However, small craft advisory conditions linger in the northern outer waters where winds remain northerly through early Saturday morning. Otherwise, the winds will remain fairly consistent through the weekend as the seas subside. Beaches Issued at 1230pm PDT Thu Jun 12 2026 Long period southerly swell will continue through the weekend, especially for south and southwest facing beaches. Hazardous beach conditions are advertised, specifically for moderate to steeply sloped beaches along the Pacific Coast of the North Bay, San Mateo, Santa Cruz counties. Hazardous beach conditions will expand to include Pacific coast beaches along the central coast and the Bay Area coast starting Saturday evening through Tuesday morning. Be sure check beach conditions before you head out. Sneaker waves will run up the beach much farther than other waves, potentially catching beachgoers by surprise and resulting in people being swept into the water. Rip currents are strong enough to pull the strongest swimmers away from shore. Swim near a lifeguard if possible. Stay back from the beach, and away from jetties, piers, beachside rocks, and other infrastructure near the water. Never turn your back to the ocean!
