A RIDGE ALOFT WILL BUILD OVER CALIFORNIA THROUGH THE WEEKEND...WHILE BREEZY OFFSHORE FLOW IMPACTS THE FAVORED INLAND VALLEYS AND MOUNTAINS.

AS A RESULT...WIDESPREAD WARM AND DRY CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THIS WEEKEND...EXCEPT COASTAL AREAS IMPACTED BY ANY DENSE FOG AND THE VERY SHALLOW MARINE LAYER.
