You’ll need short sleeves and sunscreen if you’re headed outdoors Thursday as our stretch of summerlike weather continues. Temperatures quickly climb back into the mid-80s with even warmer weather Friday.

Late-day showers and a few storms will develop on Friday afternoon, ushering in a stretch of unsettled weather that will last off and on through the weekend.

Brief downpours are possible with any thunderstorm that develops, but widespread severe weather is not expected.

Showers will also be around Saturday, but there should be some breaks late day.

Check the Severe Weather Team 11 forecast for the latest track and timing of wet weather this weekend.

VCs wanted FarmboxRx to become a meal kit, the company bootstrapped instead
FarmboxRx decided to bootstrap because founder Ashley Tyrner didn't like the advice she was getting from potential backers. Tyrner told TechCrunch's Found podcast that when she went out to raise money for FarmboxRx, a direct-to-consumer produce box company meant to solve food deserts at the time, she found that venture investors were interested if, and only if, she agreed to pivot her company toward a hot trend of the moment. Instead, the company leaned into its existing produce box-focused model and the supply chain it built around that strategy, and built a new revenue stream on top of that.
