Mild and mostly clear before dawn, the air near 55° with a breeze off the ocean. Cloud rolled in near 8am and covered the sky until eleven. It broke apart by early afternoon and the day was bright and warm, near 78° at its peak, the east wind gusting stiffly. Cloud drifted back over toward evening. The air eased toward 66° after dark and the breeze kept moving.
