...Discussion from SFOFWFMTR...

The marine layer depth is near 1500 feet. Expect  poor overnight
recoveries (20-30%) and poor daytime humidity  retention (10-30%) to
continue above the marine layer. Dry and hot weather will continue
inland while cooler, maritime influenced  weather continues closest
to the coast and bays. An upper level  trough over the eastern
Pacific will move northeastward through  late week and the weekend,
nudging the Four Corners high pressure  system slightly eastward.


...Discussion from SFOFWFEKA...

Marine influence has just started to increase across the area and
will continue to increase through the end of the  week. High clouds
Friday will aid in the warmest interior  temperatures pulling back
closer to 90 with RH closer to 25  percent. Mid and upper slope
recoveries will also improve though  remain poor on higher peaks.
Winds will remain gentle and from the west. Tropical moisture moving
overhead Friday will bring a very  slight (5%) chance of isolated,
dry thunderstorms Friday morning  and through the afternoon, but
simple high level clouds and virga  are the most likely outcome.
Warmer, near average conditions will  return Sunday and into early
next week.
