WEATHER FORECAST
“Santa Barbara should start with little to no fog today, thanks to the north winds, and the high will be around 80,” says Jack Martin of Action Roofing. “Tonight, another round of sundowners from the northwest will clear low clouds well away from the coast, bringing a sunny Sunday, warming into the low 80s. Monday should be more of the same, but fog will be back Tuesday and Wednesday.” Email [email protected] to receive daily updates.
