Laguna Beach weather this week

Laguna Beach scores 8.7 out of 10 and has no genuinely clear day in the next 7.

8.7/10

No clear day

0 genuinely clear days, 1 partly cloudy, 6 overcast, 0 wet, 0 stormy — out of 7 forecast days.

Bright days 1 vs dull days 6. Dull wins, so we do not call this a good week.

We are not showing a flattering tier word here. Why the score and the sky can disagree.

The model gives this week 8.7 out of 10 because it is warm and largely rain-free, and those are the two things the score measures. It is not measuring sunshine. With 0 genuinely clear days and 6 dull ones, expect grey skies. We are showing you the number and the contradiction rather than only the number.

7 cloudy / 0 wet days, no clear days in 7 — Glimpses of sun but no clear sky — 1 partly cloudy day, warm (90°F)

The next 7 days in Laguna Beach

Every number below is the forecast we hold, rendered as text — nothing here is drawn on a canvas or filled in by JavaScript. The rain figure is the highest chance across all 7 days (1%), not the lowest, because the worst number is the useful one.

Booking window Thu 13 Aug–Sat 15 Aug: 8.8/10 for those days alone. The 7-day outlook score (8.7) covers the full table below and includes days outside that window.

How this week got its score

7 forecast days: 0 clear/mainly clear, 1 partly cloudy, 6 overcast, 0 wet (fog/drizzle/rain/showers), 0 stormy.
Trimmed mean of day scores 8.5 × 0.55 = 4.68
Worst day drag: worst day is 8.2 × 0.25 = 2.05 - one bad day cannot be averaged away.
Longest consecutive run of good days (≥7.0) is 7/7 = 100% coverage × 0.20 = 2.00
Best single day is 9.3 but it only counts through the trimmed mean - a lone great day cannot carry the window.
Advertised 3-day window (2026-08-13→2026-08-15) scores 8.8 on its own.
Legacy gate counted 7/7 days as "perfect sun"; this model counts 0 genuinely clear.
