    Coastal June Gloom Thursday SALINAS, Calif. (KION) - Temperatures will remain on the cool side Thursday and Friday as a stable marine layer keeps clouds on the coast. Some warming is expected this weekend as the big, toasty ridge of high pressure out over the Pacific arrives in the Pacific Northwest—close enough to warm things up locally.  Air Quality: Good to Moderate    Overnight: Widespread low clouds for the coast and inland valleys with patchy fog inland and in the hills.

    Seasonable to Cool June Wednesday SALINAS, Calif. (KION) - Seasonable to slightly cool temperatures will persist into Wednesday. A cut off area of low pressure to our south will slowly move to the east and away from us, only to be replaced by overall troughing over the Western U.S through mid-week. The result will be slightly cool temperatures and a deeper marine layer and associated clouds Air Quality: Good to Moderate This Morning: Widespread low clouds. Patchy fog in the coastal hills.

    A Seasonable Tuesday SALINAS, Calif. (KION) - Seasonable temperatures continue for the most part on Tuesday. A cut off area of low pressure will sit to our south during the day but it will slowly move away from us but only to be replaced by overall troughing over the Western U.S. In the short gap, inland temps will warm 5-10ºF Tuesday but we’ll likely remain unchanged on the coast.

Traffic Update: Some major backups on northbound HWY 101 from about Rocks Rd. to Crazy Horse Canyon. Bumper to bumper traffic due to a possible accident. Might want to find alt. route. Many other spots seeing congestion. Check your drive! #catraffic https://t.co/kLzgxLA4ly

A damp, gray Monday morning. Drizzle for the south and east sides of the bay. Making roads wet. Don't be surprised if you have to use those windshield wipers once or twice during that commute. Patchy fog also possible in the hills. @erika_kion has your forecast on KION's Wake Up https://t.co/3rX7WmM5IF

A cloudy start to your Thursday, with mild temps in the low to mid 50s. Other than some patchy fog in the higher elevations, that morning commute should be smooth. @erika_kion has your forecast right now on KION's Wake Up. #cawx https://t.co/FOqlWYcA0W
