It was a very soggy Thursday with rainfall records falling across the area before the morning was out. Fortunately, the payoff is here, and it’ll be pretty great (albeit a bit windy to start). Friday will be very, very sunny, and a bit cooler than the previous couple days. We’ll start in the mid-50s, warming to the mid-70s in the afternoon. The only real fly in the ointment will be the wind, with gusts to 30 MPH possible at times as high pressure builds in.

Saturday will start even a little cooler, with lows around 50° expected before we warm to the mid-70s in the afternoon under predominantly sunny skies once again. It’ll still be a bit breezy during the day, with winds generally in the 10-15 MPH range, but it’ll be overall a great day to get outdoors. The 80s return on Sunday, and even warmer weather will follow next week.
