Warm and Windy Saturday

A big difference this morning compared to past three days. Temperatures at 9:45 am are already in the upper 60's and we expect highs to be in the upper 70's under partly sunny skies. Winds will gust from the south consistently to 15 mph and up to 25 mph at times.

Overnight, skies will be mostly clear and lows by Sunday morning will be in the upper 50's.

Sunday's forecast calls for another warm and windy day with a high near 80°. Gusty southerly winds to 30 mph during the afternoon hours, increasing from 5-10 mph in the morning.

Thunderstorm chances return on Monday, Monday night, and Tuesday with a return to sunny skies on Wednesday. Temperatures will be warm throughout the period.

The above map is the temperature outlook for May, June, and July. We'll stay in the above average sector during the next three months.
