After a couple heat waves this month, the weekend in San Diego will feel like fall.
Below-normal temperatures, coolest on Sunday, will be accompanied by widespread morning low clouds. The clouds break for some sun Saturday then may be slow to break on Sunday. The clouds Sunday morning may even deliver a little rain or drizzle in spots.
It is expected that this cool, cloudier weather pattern continues into next week allowing people to turn off the air conditioning for an extended period of time.
Severe storms are shifting eastward Wednesday afternoon delivering strong wind, heavy rain and hail.
So far this year California has seen 1,569 wildfires, 85 percent more than in an average year.
The Memorial Day weekend will begin cool, windy and rainy in New England and part of the mid-Atlantic.
GOES-East failed again late Tuesday. It is one of the main satellites meteorologists use for the eastern part of the United States and the tropical Atlantic.
On the two-year anniversary of the EF-5 tornado that leveled Joplin, Mo., the town has deployed assistance to Moore, Okla.
The tornado tore through a path 17 miles long on Monday and had wind speeds as high as 200 mph.
