A little relief from the extreme heat….If you’ve been waiting for a break in some of the heat, then get ready for the next days. A weak front will drop in tonight. While a couple of stray showers are possible, most areas should be dry under partly cloudy skies. Lows will be in the mid 70s. With the front to our south on Friday, our winds will turn from the north, giving way to high temperatures in the upper 80s and lower 90s. We’ll see a mix of sun and clouds Friday. An isolated shower or storm is possible, too. We’ll be tracking scattered showers and storms on Saturday, mainly by afternoon and evening. Highs will be in the mid and upper 80s. A few lingering showers are possible Sunday. Otherwise, we’ll see a mix of sun and clouds and highs in the mid 80s.
Tonight: Stars and Clouds. Isolated Showers (10-20%). Lows in the mid 70s. Winds: SW 5-10 mph.
Saturday: Partly Sunny. Scattered Showers/Storms (40%). Highs in the mid and upper 80s. Winds: N 5-10 mph.
