“The weather pattern has shifted,” National Weather Service meteorologist Dalton Behringer said.
The calendar marked the occasion last weekend — summer is officially here.The annual marking of the summer solstice normally is an event predated by a weather pattern of high pressure, escalating temperatures and a reduced marine layer. This year, the usual Bay Area climate for summer has been lagging.
That ridge will usher in a hot start to the weekend. Temperatures are expected to hit 90 degrees in far East Bay places such as Brentwood in Contra Costa County by Wednesday and Livermore in Alameda County by Thursday. Come Friday, the Santa Clara Valley, San Jose and most of East Bay likely will be in the lower 90s, with coastal areas in Alameda County in the 80s.
“The ridge breaks down in the early part of the week starting Sunday, and that will bring the temperatures back down again. We’ll see for how long,” Behringer said. “This does look to be the start of what we usually see . The weather pattern has shifted.”
