Riverside–San Bernardino is looking at a beautiful sunny Tuesday with a high near 76°F and southwest winds between 0–15 mph, gusting to 25 mph by afternoon—ideal conditions for just about anything you’ve got planned.
This is a welcome warmup compared to Monday, with inland areas running about 10–15 degrees warmer than recent days, according to the National Weather Service. Overnight lows will dip to around 49°F, so grab a light jacket for early morning walks through neighborhoods like downtown Riverside or the San Bernardino foothills. By midday, you’ll be shedding layers fast.
What to Do Today:
If you’re a golfer, today’s your day. Clear skies, moderate winds, and low pollen counts make this perfect for hitting the course—check out a Best Golf Rangefinders Under $300 to dial in your distances. The afternoon breeze will keep things cool even as temps climb.
Planning yard work? The light winds and dry conditions are ideal for mowing or fertilizing. A cordless lawn mower will make quick work of the Inland Empire’s spring growth, and lawn fertilizer spring will give your turf the boost it needs heading into summer.
Heading to PETCO Park in San Diego for the Padres vs. Chicago Cubs game tonight? While that’s outside our immediate forecast zone, you’ll enjoy clear skies on the drive down. Grab Get tickets on SeatGeek or Find tickets on StubHub if you haven’t locked in your seat yet. Pick up some Official team gear on Fanatics to show your colors, and if you’re tailgating beforehand, a portable propane grill and Stanley quencher tumbler will keep your crew comfortable in the evening cool-down.
Allergy Alert:
Spring pollen is ramping up across the Inland Empire. If you’re sensitive, keep an allergy relief nasal spray handy and consider a pollen count face mask for outdoor work. A HEPA air purifier indoors will help you breathe easier tonight as temps drop.
Tonight & Wednesday:
Tuesday night stays clear with lows around 51°F—perfect sleeping weather if you crack a window. Wednesday brings another sunny day with a high near 77°F and similar winds. The National Weather Service notes only slight additional warming, so Wednesday is basically a carbon copy of today.
Dinner Idea:
With this gorgeous weather, fire up the grill for tri-tip or burgers. If you’re short on ingredients, you can order groceries on Amazon and have everything delivered. Grab some quality beef and fresh veggies to make the most of these perfect grilling conditions.
Looking Ahead:
Thursday stays around average, but Friday and Saturday heat up significantly—expect mid-80s to lower 90s for the Inland Empire, with the deserts pushing toward 100°F. A cooling trend arrives Sunday into next week with a low-pressure system moving inland, bringing chances for showers by early next week. Enjoy these mild, sunny days while they last!
