It's a very mild start this morning as south winds are starting to pick up. This is bringing back the low clouds and some fog once again.

The big weather story is the near record breaking heat today and tomorrow as well as a gusty WSW wind. The record high today is 79゚. I'm forecasting a high of 81゚.

After another mild and muggy start tomorrow morning with readings in the upper fifties, we'll flirt with another record by afternoon. The record high for tomorrow is 84゚. I'm forecasting a high of 84゚ - Unheard of for this time of the year!

The warmth goes away, briefly, as a cold front arrives early Saturday morning while you are sleeping. Unfortunately, no rain will accompany the front. You'll wake up to windy and chilly are temperatures Saturday morning with readings in the low forties. Sunny, windy and cooler temperatures will prevail during the day. High of 55゚

Some areas will flirt with the freezing mark on Sunday morning, but temperatures will rebound nicely into the low sixties by afternoon, with plenty of sunshine.

A slow warm up will be felt into mid week next week, as we jump back into the 70s.

We could use some rain but none in the forecast for the next 7 days!
