**San Diego, CA [Date]** – Southern California residents should prepare for a cool down this weekend as a Pacific storm system approaches. The National Weather Service is forecasting a drop of 5 to 12 degrees below average temperatures, beginning Thursday night.
A marine layer will push inland Thursday night into Friday morning, bringing heavy mist, patchy drizzle, and light rain to the region, potentially impacting the Friday morning commute. While some areas will see clearing Friday afternoon, temperatures will remain cooler than average.

Rainfall accumulation is expected to be light, between 0.01 and 0.20 inches. Residents are advised to carry umbrellas for outdoor activities. A slight chance of lingering drizzle remains into Sunday morning, with clearing expected by the afternoon.
Warmer, sunny conditions are forecast for early next week, with temperatures returning to near-normal levels: 60s along the coast, 70s inland, 60s in the mountains, and low 90s in the deserts.
