The National Weather Service says Monday will start warm and dry in the Bay Area, but another storm could bring rain back by nightfall.
Key points
- Monday will be warm and mostly dry, with highs in the 60‑70°F range.
- Morning fog may be limited to isolated patches; widespread fog is unlikely.
- Rain is expected to return to the North Bay late Monday night as a new storm moves in.
According to the National Weather Service, daytime highs on Monday will sit in the mid to high 60s along the coast and around the bay, while inland areas can expect temperatures in the high 60s to low 70s.
Overnight lows are projected to dip into the high 40s to low 50s, offering a modest cooling after the daytime warmth.
Monday Temperatures
Forecasters note that a high‑pressure ridge building over California will usher in drier, warmer conditions after a rainy weekend, though the break is expected to be short‑lived.
Some patchy fog may develop in the morning as lingering moisture from the weekend rain remains near the surface, but widespread fog is considered unlikely, especially with high clouds moving in ahead of the next system.
Morning Fog Potential
The dry spell is set to end after dark when the high pressure weakens and a new storm system approaches, bringing rain chances back to the region, initially over the North Bay.
The National Weather Service warns that the approaching storm could bring precipitation late at night, ending Monday’s brief period of dry weather.
