Beautiful California weather can be expected this weekend as IMSA heads to WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca.
A large high pressure ridge will be over the west coast for the second half of this week. Through the weekend, this ridge will shift to the east, and a low pressure trough in the upper levels will approach from the west. The main affect of this will be temperatures that will trend warmer each day of the event, and a slight increase in high clouds on Sunday.
Morning fog is often an issue at Laguna Seca, and while it can't be ruled out, it is too far out in the forecast to mention it as a problem at this time. Forecasting fog is difficult even a few hours in advance, so I'm not going to try to do it 4 to 6 days in advance. We'll see how that develops in later forecast updates.
