The County San Diego professions in early April for a warmer and sunny weekend-San Diego Union-Tribune

The showers at the beginning of April give way to a warm and sunny weekend, and what seems to become a rest of the hotter and drier month of the month, according to the forecasters.

Santa Ana’s weak winds take place on Saturday, bringing breeze, air drying and “the start of our significant warming trend,” said National Weather Service Meteorologist Alex Tardy Tardy in a Friday afternoon briefing.

The heat should peak at the end of next week, Thursday and Friday, with temperatures of more than 10 degrees above normal in the county – as hot as 74 in San Diego, 86 in Escondido and 87 in El Cajon. Mercury will even reach triple figures in the eastern deserts of the County of San Diego, according to the forecasters.

The unusual temperatures of the region will extend well next weekend and will reflect the edge of a heat wave on a large part of the country.

This could express trouble for forest fires.

“A first season of fires is very likely,” said Tardy, pointing to the combination of seasonal precipitation lower than average, an unusually hot and dry winter and what should also be a hot and dry April.

“Everything that could grow from the precipitation in March will be likely to burn,” he noted.

But this weekend, anyway, time should be more pleasant.

San Diego Airport will experience a diurnal summit of 67 Saturday and 72 on Sunday, says the NWS.

Escondido should be 74 years old on Saturday and 79 Sunday. Oceanside will reach 62 Saturday and 65 Sunday. Imperial Beach will have 64 Saturday and 70 Sunday. And El Cajon will warm up to 76 Saturday and 82 Sunday.
