Tuesday offers a classic San Diego October: morning patchy fog burning off to increasing sunshine, a high near 78 degrees, east winds at five to ten miles per hour shifting southwest in the afternoon, and low clouds or fog returning overnight with a low around 64. Enjoy it — Wednesday night closes the window hard.
The National Weather Service is calling an 80% chance of precipitation after 11 p.m. Wednesday, with showers and a possible thunderstorm. The city forecast allows for a quarter to a half inch of rain Wednesday night alone, with storm totals through Thursday night reaching approximately one inch in northern San Diego County and a half to three-quarters of an inch farther south. Wednesday daytime remains comfortable with a high near 76, but boating plans for Wednesday afternoon or evening should be moved or held in contingency given potential marine gusts at or above 20 knots, choppy seas, and a 10 to 20 percent chance of thunderstorms.
A Beach Hazards Statement remains in effect through 11 p.m. Tuesday, with surf running three to six feet and local sets reaching seven feet, most pronounced at south- and southwest-facing beaches. Conditions are dangerous for swimming regardless of how inviting the onshore weather appears.
Upcoming calendar items: the 10th Annual National Cannabis Research Conference continues today and tomorrow at the DoubleTree by Hilton at Mission Valley, 7450 Hazard Center Drive, running through 3 p.m. Wednesday. The professional, registration-based conference — bringing together the Institute of Cannabis Research with the National Interdisciplinary Cannabis Symposium and UC San Diego-related programming — covers science, medicine, law, and public policy. And the Lions Tigers & Bears sanctuary in Alpine has confirmed its Spooky Campover on October 23rd is proceeding as planned despite ongoing storm-damage repairs.
