Forecast Discussion
A few locations saw a quick shower or two Thursday afternoon. I really didn't expect that to happen, but that is why I generally leave a 10% chance of rain in the forecast every day throughout the summer, because you never know when something unexpected like that may happen. More dry weather is in the forecast for today and Saturday; today should feature a lot of sunshine, but clouds will steadily increase during the day on Saturday. Look for highs to be in the lower to mid 80s both days. A chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms returns to the forecast after that as a low pressure system moves through the area. Showers and storms are possible from Saturday night through Monday. The rain should also hold temperatures down, especially on Sunday when we may not get out of the 70s. Mostly sunny and dry weather is expected to return after that, and highs will steadily climb from the lower 80s on Tuesday and Wednesday to near 90 again by next weekend.
