Overview
- A weakening spring storm produced scattered showers, brief heavy bursts, gusts near 40 mph, lightning, and short-lived marine warnings along the coast.
- Winds have eased below advisory levels, though forecasters flagged possible advisories for southern Santa Barbara County.
- High pressure is set to lift temperatures into the upper 60s and 70s, with the warmest readings in inland valleys.
- A weak weekend system could bring light showers and gusty west winds Saturday evening, with most areas seeing a tenth of an inch or less.
- Orographic lift could nudge higher totals in the Santa Lucia and Santa Ynez ranges, so nearby roads may turn slick during any quick downpours.
