FORECAST:

• We will be starting a little cooler from this time yesterday, but overall, very similar conditions to the past couple of mornings.
• Visibility does look like it will decrease gradually throughout the early morning before revealing partly sunny skies by late morning or early afternoon.
• Highs today will make it to the upper 80s and will stay there throughout the weekend.
• There is a slight chance for an isolated shower before noon, but things do seem to pick up mainly after about 12 p.m.
• As of right now, today’s rain does look to be non-severe and non-threatening.
• The region will be dealing with on-and-off summer showers over the next several days as that front hangs out over the mountains.
• Tomorrow, showers could develop into something more severe and possibly turn severe, but right now the risk of widespread severe weather is low.
