Despite the cloudy start to the weekend, the clouds briefly broke up for a healthy dose of sunshine this afternoon. Temperatures into the low to mid 60s this afternoon. Clouds are filling back in this evening, and we’ll be somewhere between a partly to mostly cloudy sky tonight. Expect a cool evening, with temperatures around 50° at 7PM but falling into the 40s after that. Lows fall into the low to mid 40s. Patchy fog could develop after midnight, and it could be locally dense around sunrise Sunday. Be on the lookout for that and drive safely if you’re hitting the roads early.
The gradually clears Sunday morning, with a partly cloudy sky during the afternoon. Winds shift to the southeast, and high temperatures reach the upper 60s to low 70s. Clouds increase Sunday night, and lows only fall into the upper 50s.
