High pressure will build over the region through the weekend leading to much warmer temperatures and dry conditions. Mostly clear skies tonight as lows dip into the upper 20s and 30s. Fair and warmer tomorrow with a high near 70 degrees, light northeast winds 5-10 mph. Couldn't ask for a better Mother's Day forecast as highs top out in the mid to upper 70s over the weekend, even nearing 80 degrees by Sunday into earlynext week with relatively light and variable winds. High pressure will break down a bit towards the middle of next week as a Pacific trough pushes inland to our north, but for now, we'll keep the forecast dry with above-normal temperatures. Looking further out, May-June are ordinarily 2 of our driest months across Socal until we hit monsoon season in July (officially begins June 15th), though our moisture usually arrives after the Independence holiday. With the development of El Niño, we could have an abundance of tropical moisture to work with this summer from what should be an active East Pac hurricane season, leading to a more active monsoon season across the Desert Southwest. Even the potential for remnant systems to be drawn northward across the region later in the summer. If all goes according to plan, we could have an unseasonably wet summer with more of those afternoon thundershowers later in July through September, but it's weather and things can change, stay tuned for more!
