Valley highs will be in the mid to upper 80s through Monday. The Foothills will see highs in the upper 70s to low 80s. The Sierra will be pleasant with chilly mornings and mild afternoons. <\/p>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/13e21bdd-4cd1-4666-96fd-4f15a2d5fd56.png\" alt=\"Image no longer available\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" draggable=\"true\" class=\"css-fphibt\"\/><\/p>\n<p>KCRA 3<\/p>\n<p>Labor Day weekend forecast for NorCal region Saturday through Monday<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/13e21bdd-4cd1-4666-96fd-4f15a2d5fd56.png\" alt=\"Image no longer available\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"css-hr9vxw\"\/><\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"4\">If your holiday weekend plans take you into Southern California, there will be periods of unsettled weather as remnant tropical moisture moves through late weekend. <\/p>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/a0e6166c-b0eb-4c74-af6a-afc143506373.png\" alt=\"Image no longer available\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" draggable=\"true\" class=\"css-fphibt\"\/><\/p>\n<p>KCRA 3<\/p>\n<p>Labor Day forecast across California <\/p>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/a0e6166c-b0eb-4c74-af6a-afc143506373.png\" alt=\"Image no longer available\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"css-hr9vxw\"\/><\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"6\">Plan for areas around Los Angeles and San Diego to have morning fog and afternoon sun Saturday and for much of Sunday.
