A cool Sunday morning brought in a light drizzle of rain and plenty of clouds.  

Rain was expected to remain light. 

“It’s not really going to be anything we’ll be able to measure,” said Mike Wofford a meteorologist with the National Weather Service.  

Weather forecasts are expected to remain the same until Wednesday of this upcoming week: light drizzle and fog before noon, according to National Weather Forecasts officials.   

“When we get this deep, what we call marine layer … When it gets high it tends to have a little more moisture with it. It interacts with our coastal mountain ranges to kind of create a little bit of drizzle or light rain. Not like a storm or anything,” Wofford said. 

Beginning Wednesday the weather is expected to go back to sunny skies.
