As the week progresses, San Diegans are experiencing a noticeable uptick in temperatures, with forecasts predicting highs that will surpass the seasonal average by a considerable margin. According to the National Weather Service in San Diego, “Temperatures will continue to warm with high temperatures getting to 5 to 15 degrees above the seasonal average Thursday through Saturday.” This warming trend offers a stark shift from the cooler temperatures that greeted residents earlier in the week.
