Happy Thanksgiving! Greetings from Mesa Verde, Colorado, where we had a marvelous, 360-degree sunset Wednesday. But it was 35 degrees. No lack of warmth in San Diego County today, with highs in 70s at coast, some 80s inland. Cooler for the weekend. Next rain chance mid next week. #sandiegoweather

Shorts weather always seems a little discombobulating on Thanksgiving; there will be no getting cozy by the fire. But I suppose we've earned a pleasant day after all the rain and coolness lately. So enjoy! We could be back to cool and rainy by next weekend. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

As it stands now, this month is at least the 8th wettest November in San Diego history, going back to 1850. The total as of this a.m. is 3.10 inches. More rain is expected by Saturday. Another 0.07 moves the month into 6th place. The November record is 5.82 inches in 1965. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

It's been another unusual storm, with more rain falling in San Diego than in North County. Even rarer, most spots in the mountains have been drier, too. The weather service says we can expect some scattered showers into Saturday, about 0.10 to 0.30 of an inch, coast & valleys. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

There was enough of a break in the clouds this morning to the east to let the rising sun shine through in inland North County. … Some light rain has been recorded in a few spots along the coast. Oceanside has 0.03 of an inch. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

The sky lit up to the north at sunset tonight here in inland North County. It looked stormy over the mountains. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

March of the cloud pillows: We’ve had some pretty skies the days before & between storms lately. Cumulus have floated by today in advance of the next round of rain, which the weather service says could begin tonight. Odds are higher Thursday p.m., with thunderstorms possible. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

By San Diego County standards, it's one big brrrr! High temperatures aren't expected to rise out of the low 60s in the valleys and at the coast for the next three days. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

San Diego dipped to at least 48° this morning. That's the coldest it's been in town since March 16, when it was 47. Ramona fell to 34° today. The Mount Laguna Lodge (pictured) got a tiny bit of snow. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

It's early, but California's water year (Oct. 1 start) is off to a good, wet start. The Northern Sierra, a key region for the state's water supply, has recorded 168% of normal precipitation for today's date. San Diego has had more than three times its normal rain for Nov. 18. #CAwx #sandiegoweather

Keep an eye out for rainbows today. With sun and showers coming and going, conditions are ripe for them. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

Good satellite image late this morning shows the low-pressure system that is responsible for our rain west of Point Conception. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

It appears San Diego was the wettest spot in the county with last night's storm. The total for the month is 2.50 inches. Light showers remain possible today, & another storm is expected to arrive Thursday. This will likely be the wettest November in town since at least 2011. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

Clouds lining up for tonight’s storm over Orfila Winery in the San Pasqual late this afternoon. Rain should be arriving in San Diego County within the next 3 or 4 hours. Another storm is possible late in the week. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

Nice pre-storm skyscape over Escondido’s Kit Carson Park this morning. Rain should arrive tonight. #CAwx #sandiegoweather

The sunrise between storms: The weather service says the next storm should arrive this afternoon. It shouldn’t be as wet as the last one. Areas west of the mountains should get 0.5 to an inch of rain by Wednesday. But this one will be colder, bringing snow down to 5K feet. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

A lot of daily rainfall records fell Saturday, inlcuding in San Diego. The monthly total for the city is up to 1.42 inches, making this the wettest November since 2019, when 2.72 was recorded. Normal for all of November is 0.79. More rain is expected this week. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

Storm totals as of 4:34 p.m. Most spots have added at least a few hundreds of an inch since. The next storm Monday and Tuesday could deliver similar totals or just a little less. It's a good, wet November for San Diego County. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

San Diego has been one of the wetter spots in the county over the last 24 hours, with 0.90 of an inch of rain. Oceanside and Palomar Mountain have topped an inch. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

The heavy rain is late, but it's still coming. More than an inch has fallen in the L.A. area and parts of Orange County. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

Some pretty substantial 24-hour rainfall totals near Santa Barbara tonight. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

Gray day over the bay on the way out of San Diego this morning. Heavy rain still on tap for later tonight. #sandiehoweather #CAwx
