Northern California is set to experience warm and dry conditions early this week, with temperatures rising along the coast due to a high-pressure system. The National Weather Service in Eureka reports that coastal areas like Crescent City may see highs in the lower 70s, with a 75% chance of hitting 70°F or more today.

Interior valleys could see temperatures soar above 100°F, but cooler weather is expected by midweek as an upper-level trough moves in, bringing lower temperatures and a chance of coastal drizzle by Wednesday in Del Norte and Humboldt Counties.
