Tonight & Tomorrow: Skies will be mostly clear overnight as low temperatures basin near 70 degrees. Ample sunshine early on Saturday will drive high temperatures to about 92 degrees. Isolated showers and thunderstorms will pop during the mid and late afternoon hours. While you might miss rain, those that see any action could get brief downpours and frequent lightning.
Up Next: Sunday may feature fewer showers than Saturday, but not to say there will not be any around at all. The bigger story will be warmth with high temperatures surging well into the 90s. By early next week humidity will increase a bit. With more moisture in the atmosphere overall, daily rain coverage will move into the isolated category with 20 to 40 percent. Activity will be limited to the afternoon and evening hours, as is usual for the time of year.
