What causes the microclimates in San Diego?
The official San Diego weather forecast and weather statistics are for the San Diego International Airport, which is located on the coast. As you go inland, San Diego’s climate changes quickly due to the topography of the land. The general rule is that rainfall increases at the higher elevations and as you move inland from the coast. Also, North San Diego County gets more rain than South San Diego County. The San Diego weather radar map and the San Diego weather satellite image will show you the location of any clouds, rain or other precipitation in the San Diego microclimates.
