Friday & the weekend: Comfortable and quiet while trending warmer

High pressure remains the main weather player in our neck of the woods, keeping things generally quiet and seasonable for Friday and the weekend. You may need a light hoodie or somesuch Friday morning as lows bottom out to the low 50s in the metro and perhaps into the 40s further inland and in more rural locations. Highs Friday peak in the low 70s with plenty of sunshine expected.
High pressure starts to move a bit more overhead Saturday and then starts to slip offshore on Sunday. This will lead to gradually warming temperatures through the weekend; mid-70s Saturday while we should touch 80° on Sunday. Generally speaking, mostly sunny skies will prevail, though there could be an uptick in cloud cover later Sunday as a front approaches. A stray shower will be possible overnight Sunday into early Monday morning, but otherwise, we look to stay dry well into next week.
