Mostly sunny skies and slightly warmer temperatures are expected in San Diego County today before rainy and cooler conditions arrive on Tuesday, meteorologists said.
The most persistent rain will fall between Tuesday afternoon and early Wednesday morning, according to the National Weather Service.
Rainfall totals are expected to be an inch to 1.75 inches in coastal and valley areas, 1.75 to 3 inches in the mountains and a quarter-inch to a half- inch in the deserts.
Highs on Tuesday are expected to dip into the 60s in coastal and valley areas, mid-50s to low 60s in the mountains and high 60s to low 70s in the deserts.
"A few showers may linger into Thursday, otherwise most areas will see partly cloudy skies and seasonal temperatures to end the week,'' the NWS said.
