• San Diego County is experiencing unusually warm and dry weather this week, with temperatures running significantly above seasonal averages, according to the National Weather Service (NWS).
• Weak Santa Ana winds over the weekend contributed to the warm and dry conditions, with inland areas like Santee nearing 90°F (32°C).

Impact & Risks

The warm, dry conditions increase fire danger, particularly in inland areas where temperatures are highest. Coastal regions face risks of minor flooding during high tide due to elevated surf and strong rip currents. Beachgoers are advised to exercise caution. The heat may also pose health risks, especially for vulnerable populations such as the elderly and those with pre-existing conditions. The inland valleys and mountains are expected to experience the most significant temperature spikes.
