A wind advisory for San Diego County’s mountains and along the coastal foothills was issued Sunday by the National Weather Service and was expected to remain in effect until Monday morning.
East to northeast winds of 15 to 30 mph were forecast for the area, with isolated gusts of 40 to 50 mph, according to the NWS. The strongest winds were expected during the day, then not as widespread and a little weaker Sunday night and into early Monday.

A warming trend was predicted through Monday, with a cooling trend expected to start Tuesday when onshore flow returns and a ridge of high pressure weakens, according to NWS forecasters.
Forecasters expected the fair weather to continue on Wednesday, with clouds increasing Thursday. A storm system will move across Southern California on Friday, but showers were unlikely in San Diego County.
