Coastal San Diego faces a comfortable stretch through the weekend: mostly sunny to partly cloudy Thursday with a high near 73 degrees and an overnight low around 62, with nearly identical conditions Friday. Residents west of the 15 can expect light westerly winds and a pleasant late-summer pattern.
The inland story is sharply different. The extreme heat warning for desert zones and the heat advisory for inland valleys both remain active through 8 p.m. Sunday. Santee, El Cajon, Lakeside, and Alpine should expect highs well above 100 degrees through the weekend. Monsoon moisture is elevating humidity and raising a small chance of isolated afternoon thunderstorms over the mountains — a combination of heat and humidity that poses the greatest risk to older adults and young children. The Santee Branch Library at 9225 Carlton Hills Boulevard remains a designated Cool Zone.
Thursday evening events across the county include the Dockside Night Market from 6 p.m. at Tuna Harbor Dockside Market downtown; the Old Globe's outdoor summer production of "Hamlet" in Balboa Park, directed by Barry Edelstein and running through September 10; and Fashion Valley's final "Camp Fashion Valley" family session from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., a "Creative Campers" art project led by the San Diego Museum of Art. Grupo Frontera begins a run at Viejas Arena at SDSU's Aztec Bowl tonight, and Colombian artist Monsieur Periné performs at the House of Blues San Diego.
Looking ahead: the San Diego Astronomy Association's free Star Party at Sycamore Canyon Preserve runs Friday, August 28 from 7 to 10 p.m. The Santee Free Swim Day at Cameron Family YMCA Aquatic Center is Saturday, August 15, with three swim blocks at 10 a.m. to noon, 1 to 3 p.m., and 4 to 6 p.m.
