Tonight's Forecast:
We continue with above-average temperatures for today as well as hazy conditions. No air quality alerts are in place, and we can expect the haze to start to exit the area. Cloud cover tonight will likely keep us from getting too chilly tonight. Once we get into Sunday, southwesterly winds could give us a boost in moisture. Some dry air mixed in so that these rain chances could stay more isolated. The most likely day to see rain will be on Monday.

Once we get into the work week, rain chances will increase and we could see more rain move in. Tuesday could bring more rain for the higher terrain, but this will likely stay on the low end.

Towards the end of next week, we could potentially see a potent cold front move through. This would drop our highs to more seasonal averages for this time of year.
