Forecast

Today, expect a few showers this morning, followed by partly cloudy skies. It’s going to be one more hot day with temperatures nearing 90 degrees this afternoon.

Friday Morning: Showers, Very Windy

Rain chances sit at about 30%, primarily between 3 AM and 10 AM. So, be prepared for a damp morning commute. Additionally, it’ll be very windy, with gusts reaching up to 40 mph from the north.

A cold front will kick up showers on Friday morning. This is the future radar for 5 AM Friday (10/16).
