a 20% chance of an afternoon shower or
thunderstorm. Highs head toward the
upper 80s and low 90s this afternoon.
Partly to mostly cloudy tonight with
lows near 70. Thursday looks very much
like today with only a slight chance of
a storm. A cold front approaches Friday
with limited moisture. We've bumped
rain chances up to 30% Friday, with
otherwise variably cloudy skies. Also,
we've shaved a few degrees off Friday's
highs, with a top temperature in the
mid and upper 80s. The slow moving
front may still cause a few clouds
around town Saturday, but high pressure
will return with mostly sunny skies
Sunday. Temperatures this weekend will
be near 80 as highs, and in the lower
60s as lows. Labor Day (Monday) through
Wednesday call for mostly sunny skies
and comfortable temperatures in the low

< Webb in the SkyTracker7 Forecast
Center. I hope you're having a great
morning so far! Watch for patchy fog
this morning in some location. This
should be lifting by mid morning. Look
for partly sunny skies today with only
a 20% chance of an afternoon shower or

thunderstorm. Highs head toward the
upper 80s and low 90s this afternoon.
Partly to mostly cloudy tonight with
lows near 70. Thursday looks very much
like today with only a slight chance of
a storm. A cold front approaches Friday
with limited moisture. We've bumped
rain chances up to 30% Friday, with
otherwise variably cloudy skies. Also,
we've shaved a few degrees off Friday's
highs, with a top temperature in the
mid and upper 80s. The slow moving
front may still cause a few clouds
around town Saturday, but high pressure
will return with mostly sunny skies
Sunday. Temperatures this weekend will
be near 80 as highs, and in the lower
60s as lows. Labor Day (Monday) through
Wednesday call for mostly sunny skies
and comfortable temperatures in the low
and mid 80s. Have a great day!!!

WEDNESDAY: Partly sunny. Isolated
storm. Warm. High: 90

WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Increasing clouds.
Low: 71

THURSDAY: Partly sunny. Isolated storm.
Warm. High: 92
