Election Day weather looks cooperative. The National Weather Service updated its San Diego forecast Sunday evening indicating a warming trend into Tuesday, with highs expected to remain slightly below normal but Saturday's rain well clear of the region by morning. Voters heading to polls should encounter dry conditions.
The coastal hazard picture extends well beyond today's expiring beach statement. Tides are expected to climb toward approximately seven feet by Friday and roughly seven and a half feet over the weekend and into early next week — a trend that low-lying areas along the coast should monitor throughout the week, not just today.
The four races to watch Tuesday night are CD-48 with von Wilpert versus Desmond, County Supervisor District 5 with Rebecca Jones versus Kyle Krahel, the Chula Vista mayoral contest between John McCann and Francisco Tamayo, and the two countywide measures — Measure B on the half-cent sales tax and Measure A on charter governance changes. Santee's city-specific sales tax proposal and its two council races add to the East County tally. Polls close at 8 p.m. and any voter in line at that hour may cast a ballot.
