As an upper level ridge begins to build over the eastern Pacific, a surface high will build into the Great Basin. This will result in some gusty winds tonight mainly over the North Bay mountains and East Bay hills. Strongest winds are anticipated to be limited to just the higher elevations, thus, a Wind Advisory isn't expected to be needed. This gradient will relax on Tuesday, and high pressure will bring warmer temperatures to the district by Wednesday, when highs are forecast to warm into the 60s. This trend will continue through the week with warmest inland areas likely see highs warming into he 70s. This ridge will remain anchored along the coast through the week keeping dry conditions then through the period. ∨
