Kraig Pakulski / Wednesday, April 22, 2026 / Categories: Regions, California; Santa Barbara County Drying Wednesday, tracking more rain chances over the weekend Happy Wednesday! We begin the morning with clear skies and frigid temperatures. Most areas hold into the 30s and 40s for a quite a few hours. In the wake of a cold front most of the ground will be damp and may help develop some fog development along major highways. We start Thursday with a few mid to high level clouds before a clearing trend is established. Offshore flow will bring lower humidity values and minimal marine or fog influence. Highs rise into the 60s and low 70s. Winds will be breezy at times and marine waters are calm. Enjoy! Partly cloudy and mild weather occurs Friday. This will be a light push of sea breeze and high pressure. This will be a short lived trend as clouds increase over the weekend, temperatures cool and another round of rain is possible. Models indicate 20% chance or less on Saturday and most data shows rainfall amounts will be very light. More rain chances appear next week. Highs mostly ebb and flow between mid 60s and low 70s.
