It may be the unofficial kickoff to summer, but Memorial Day weekend in the Bay Area is expected to be mostly cool and cloudy.
The sun is forecast to make few appearances, primarily peeking through the clouds, said Roger Gass, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service .
“Look for a mix of sun and clouds, ” Gass said. It’s a “pretty typical summer pattern for us with the low clouds.”
High temperatures in San Francisco on Saturday and Sunday are expected to only reach the low 60s.
And though there will be a sheet of fog hanging over the city throughout most of the morning on Saturday, San Franciscans can expect some sunshine in the late afternoon and evening, Gass said.
He offered a slightly warmer forecast for much of the East Bay with temperatures in the upper 60s on Saturday and in the 70s on Sunday.
In the South Bay, temperatures will be similar to the East Bay with temperatures reaching the 70s on Saturday and Sunday.
“That slight warming trend will extend into Monday as well, ” Gass said, adding that temperatures will be a degree or two warmer for the region.
As people make plans for the three-day weekend, Gass said the coldest areas will be along the coast.
“Everything dries up and gets cloudy and cool at the coast, ” Gass said.
Temperatures along the coast will remain in the mid to upper 50s through Monday.
It’s “just a seasonably cool holiday weekend for the most part, ” Gass said.
