Weather around San Diego

San Diego's coast stays mild most of the year, which makes the inland drives the ones that change. In late spring and early summer a marine layer can keep the beaches gray into the afternoon while Julian, Temecula and Ramona are clear and warmer.

In winter the mountains around Julian and Idyllwild can be cold or snowy, and Borrego Springs and the desert are at their best. In summer the desert is very hot, and we mark any day above 88F.

How we pick

"Good" means a high from 55F to 88F, a forecast of sun or clouds, and at most a 30% chance of rain or snow, with no thunderstorm, dangerous heat or cold, strong gusts or smoke. "Mixed" means one day is good and the other isn't. Picks are ordered by that, then by the forecast and how much of a destination the town is.

Drive times start at the center of San Diego and go to the center of each town. They come from a table built on OpenStreetMap and do not include traffic or seasonal road closures.
