Temperatures will be trending near to 5 degrees below average across the county with thick marine layer clouds for the coast and valleys in the morning, clearing to sunny skies by mid to late morning.
The marine layer may produce misty conditions to patchy drizzle into Tuesday morning, though little to no accumulation is expected.
Monsoon moisture will briefly return on Thursday, bringing a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms to the mountains and an uptick in humidity across the county.

Slight cooling early next week with temperatures trending near average for the end of September.
