Today's Forecast: A.M. clouds, shower, some P.M. sunshine

The forecast from FOX 17 Chief Meteorologist Kevin Craig: Upper level smoke may produce a hazy sky today, otherwise we expect morning clouds, perhaps a lingering shower, before we start to clear this afternoon. Humidity drops once again today behind a cold front for a more comfortable, dry, less less humid air mass. Highs will be in the upper 70s near 80° today and Thursday. Our weekend looks to warm back up in the mid/upper 80s as a long stretch of dry weather starts this afternoon and continues through most of Sunday! Stay alert with FOX 17 weather for your latest forecast.
