‘Excellent’ Holiday Weather Forecast

The weather forecaster summed up Orange County’s Labor Day weekend forecast in one word: excellent.
“Except for a lingering marine layer that is expected to take longer to burn off than was the case in recent days, it will be mostly sunny and warm,” said James McCutcheon, a meteorologist for WeatherData, a service that provides forecasts to The Times.
McCutcheon predicted highs of mid-80s inland and 70s along the coast.
On Friday, the mercury climbed to 90 in Anaheim, 86 in El Toro, 85 in Santa Ana and 70 in Newport Beach.
“It’s going to be bit cooler than we expected,” McCutcheon said. “The marine layer is going to creep further inland, and that will make it a little bit cooler.”
