Friday & the weekend: Warming trend commences

/ May 11, 2023 at 11:18 PM

We’re turning warmer to close out the work week and head into the weekend as high pressure shifts offshore and winds go more southerly. Friday tops out around 84° with a low in the mid-60s, while Saturday heads to the upper 80s and Sunday tops out near 90° as ridging builds in aloft.

We look to stay rain-free Friday, but a storm or two will be possible Saturday afternoon with slightly better storm chances Sunday afternoon into the evening hours. Some spots may see some brief downpours and some gusty winds, but it’s not looking terribly favorable for organized severe weather. That being said, storm motions will be coastward, and so if you head to the beaches or are otherwise out and about, keep an eye to the sky and be ready to head indoors if weather conditions take a turn. Remember, when thunder roars, go indoors!
