Our local Otay Mesa/San Ysidro team urges residents to inspect their homes and commercial properties for damage after any high-wind event. While the Santa Ana winds are most prevalent during the fall and winter months in Southern California, they can occasionally occur in the summer, although they are less common during this time of year.

During the summer, Southern California's typical weather pattern is influenced by different atmospheric conditions compared to the fall and winter months. In summer, the region often experiences a marine layer, a cool, moist air mass that forms over the Pacific Ocean and moves inland, bringing fog and cooler temperatures to coastal areas.

However, under certain weather conditions, such as the presence of a strong high-pressure system over the Great Basin or an unusually strong temperature gradient between inland and coastal areas, Santa Ana winds can develop even in the summer months. These summer Santa Ana wind events are usually less intense and less frequent than those occurring in the fall and winter, but they can still pose a risk of property and fire damage.

While the Santa Ana winds are most commonly associated with the fall and winter seasons, they can occur at any time of the year under specific atmospheric conditions, including during the summer months.
