San Diego weather: Warming into the weekend, then a cooldown
May 01, 2026
We are kicking off the first day of May with our May gray marine layer cloud cover for the coast and inland valleys. Expect gradual clearing through the day with mostly sunny skies by the afternoon and warmer daytime highs.
Saturday will still be warm with passing clouds. By Sunday, our onshore
flow will increase with a cooler air mass moving. This will remain in place Monday and Tuesday with more moisture for Southern California. We may see a stray shower or sprinkles on Monday, then a slight shower chance for Tuesday.
The rest of next week looks dry with a warming trend again.
FRIDAY
Coast: turning mostly sunny – Highs around 70
Inland: turning mostly sunny, warmer – highs in the upper 70s
Mountains: sunny, breezy – low 70s
Deserts: Sunny, breezy – low to mid 90s
