After an unusually warm Friday, temperatures will drop slightly but still be in the 50s. Of course, overnight lows will be much colder as is typical of this time of year. All weekend will be cloudy with a chance of some precipitation on Saturday. Sunday the clouds will break and old Sol will poke his head out. The last weekend of November is usually spent shopping, but don’t forget to unwind by partaking in the many goings-on across the South Coast!
