Partly cloudy this evening with an isolated shower or storm.
Scattered showers and storms are possible tomorrow with partly cloudy skies and highs slipping into the low and mid 80s. Rain chances will drop and more sunshine will blend in for the weekend. Highs will drop into the low 80s.
Jose is expected to track between the East Coast and Bermuda early next week. The exact path will determine how much of an impact we see but it looks like the core of the storm will stay over the Atlantic. As of now, we will see rough surf and a high risk for rip currents this weekend and early next week.
