FORECAST DISCUSSION:

Happy Friday!

We start the day off with a little bit of sunshine, but clouds will gradually build in throughout the day. Despite the cloud coverage, we will be much warmer, with highs into the middle 70s and a slight breeze. We’ll then see scattered showers arriving after sunset and going into the overnight.

Expect that scattered rain to gradually taper by about mid-morning Saturday. We’ll then see just an isolated shower chance into the afternoon. We will, however, be fairly breezy, even a little gusty at times. Highs warm into the upper 70s.

Then by Sunday, expect highs to warm into the lower 80s. We’ll still be breezy, but not as gusty as Saturday. We’ll be mainly dry with some sunshine Sunday, just looking at a very isolated shower chance during the afternoon.

For Monday, we stick in the lower 80s, and we start the day on a dry note. Showers and thunderstorms then arrive along a cold front late in the day and overnight into Tuesday.
