Meteorologist Kristy Steward's First Warning Forecast

Happy Wednesday evening! Temperatures were warmer today. If you like the 80s, enjoy Thursday because temperatures gradually fall into the weekend and next week.

We’ll have some spotty showers continuing this evening and tonight. Lows will be on the warmer side in the low to mid 60s.

Thursday is looking mostly dry with more sunshine than clouds. High temperatures reach the lower 80s for most, a few may touch the mid 80s.
