After a gorgeous spate the rain has moved in so expect off and on showers with some heavier pockets. There is even a threat for some strong to severe thunderstorms by this afternoon as the Storm Prediction Center has placed the region under a Risk. Expect highs in the upper 60s, with breezes picking up out of the NE early and becoming SE later in the day. Tomorrow the big story will be the gusty winds with limited sun and continued cool air in the lower 60s.

Friday and the weekend provide a return to abundant sunshine. But unlike the warmth of weekends past, we will remain below average in the low 60s. Overnight lows into the weekend slip into the 40s downtown and upper 30s in the suburbs. Dry conditions linger into the start of next week. Have a great day!
