Afternoon highs will be in the mid 70s with some cooler hilltops. Nighttime temperatures will range from the upper 40s to the mid 50s with areas of fog.
Friday

Friday looks dry with a typical mix of sun and clouds. Light northwest winds will turn calm late in the day, then light from the south at night. Highs will be around 70 degrees and overnight lows will range through the upper 40s and lower half of the 50s with areas of fog.
Saturday
What: Sun and clouds. A few showers.
A push of warmer air will make its way into the area Saturday, leading to some scattered showers. These will be especially likely in the afternoon, though some areas may not see rain. South winds will increase to 10 mph, leading to highs in the mid and locally upper 70s.
Sunday
What: A few showers
The cold front associated with this weekend’s system will pass through on Sunday, leading to a few more showers. There is a chance that Saturday ends up with more rain than Sunday, though neither day should be a washout. Sunday’s showers should organize into a brief and quick moving line. A couple rumbles of thunder will be possible.. Highs will be in the mid and upper 70s.
Monday
What: Sun and clouds.
Monday should be dry on the other side of the weekend’s system. Look for sun and clouds with a high in the low and mid 70s and a light, variable wind.
Tuesday
What: Sun and clouds.
Tuesday is looking dry most likely with a mix of sun and clouds. A south wind will develop, helping highs in the upper 70s or even near 80 degrees.
Wednesday
What: Scattered showers.
Another quick moving system will pass through on Wednesday with some scattered showers and perhaps a couple thunderstorms. Temperatures will likely be cooler than Tuesday, but ultimately will depend on the timing of this weather system.
Late Next Week
Another weather system is expected toward the end of next week, possibly with some heavy rain, followed by a turn toward cooler temperatures next weekend and the following week.
