As the weekend approaches, many are planning outdoor activities, family gatherings, or simply looking forward to some relaxation. Weather plays a big role in how those plans unfold. This weekend’s forecast calls for a mix of showers and cloudy skies, with some breaks of sunshine. Understanding the details can help you prepare and make the most of your days ahead.
What to Expect Today and Tonight
The day starts with a chance of showers, mainly before 10 a.m., so early morning plans might need a raincoat or umbrella. The chance of precipitation is about 30%, and any rainfall is expected to be light, less than a tenth of an inch. Temperatures will reach a high near 67 degrees Fahrenheit, with a west wind blowing at 8 to 13 mph.
Tonight, the skies remain mostly cloudy with temperatures dropping to around 45 degrees. Winds will calm down, shifting from west at 6 mph to nearly still after midnight. This cooler, calm night might feel a bit damp but not too chilly.

Thursday night will be partly cloudy with lows around 42 degrees. Winds will be light and variable, so it should be a calm and cool night. This break in the clouds offers a good chance to enjoy some clear skies before the weekend’s wetter weather arrives.
Showers Return Friday and Continue Through the Weekend
