Derrah Getter's First Warning Forecast
We're trading the clouds and cooler temperatures for more sunshine and warmer weather.
This afternoon highs struggle to reach the 80s underneath a pretty thick layer of cloud cover. Breezy northeasterly winds pull in some wildfire smoke so there is a moderate air quality concern today. The northeasterly winds will also lead to rough surf and minor tidal flooding. A few spotty hit-or-miss showers will be possible through the evening.
The clouds stick around through the first part of the weekend. Rain chances decrease with Sunday being the drier of the two weekend days. Highs climb into the low 90s by the start of next week.
