Very warm start to weekend ahead

SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — Dense fog made for a tricky Friday morning commute but most of the low cloud cover is clearing.

Some areas like La Jolla may stay foggy for much of the day but otherwise sunshine is taking over the rest of the region.

The warming trend peaks Saturday where many inland areas will get close to 80 degrees at the peak of temperatures. 

Weak Santa Ana winds are helping to dry out and warm up temperatures anywhere from 10 to 15 degrees for west of the mountains. Northeast winds could gust 15 to 20 miles per hour Saturday afternoon, but winds decrease and become more isolated into the weekend.

Saturday daytime highs will top out in the low to mid 70s for the coast, low 80s inland, upper 60s for the mountains and upper 70s for the deserts. 

An area of low pressure swings through well to the north for Sunday but it will bring increasing cloud cover and cooler temperatures for the back half of the weekend.

Another Santa Ana wind event kicks in for Monday through Wednesday of next week and is expected to be stronger than the current one.
