Afternoons run between 81 and 89 degrees over the next five days. Nothing in the seven-day is asking for a change of plan. Forecast from the National Weather Service.

Why it is doing this

A seven-day is a pattern, not seven forecasts. What is worth knowing is what is steering the pattern.

Behind the day to day, a strong El Niño is in place — the Pacific index sits at +1.80. It does not decide any single afternoon, but it tilts the odds for the season.

The barometer is down 0.7 millibars in six hours. Falling pressure means air is being lifted somewhere close by, and lifted air is what builds cloud and, eventually, rain.

The dew point is 60 — noticeable but not oppressive, and low enough that the nights can cool off properly.
