Warm Weather, 70+ Degree Temps In Dana Point Holiday Weekend

DANA POINT, CA — Dana Point residents can expect warm temperatures, clear skies and a return of summer weather this holiday weekend.

The summer spell comes just a short week after Orange County officials issued a Cold Weather Advisory across the county.

On Saturday, temperatures will jump in Dana Point from the low-'60s to the low-'70s, according to Accuweather. Residents can expect plenty of sun Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, as Sunday temperatures are predicted to rise to 73-degrees.

The warmer weather comes on the heels of an extended Air Quality Alert, which will be in effect until Saturday, weather officials say. The wood-burning ban forbids burning wood, as well as manufactured fire logs, in any indoor or outdoor setting.

The ban does not apply to communities above 3,000 feet in elevation, households that rely on wood as a sole source of heat, homes without nearby natural gas service and low income households.

Dana Point residents were also notified of a Beach Hazard Advisory in place through Sunday as King Tides hit Orange County.
