The disturbance that caused the overnight rain has moved offshore and after some morning cloudiness it will become mostly sunny today. High temperatures will be around 10 degrees lower than yesterday and there will be low humidity with dew points in the low 60s, so the weather will be quite nice today.
Showers and thunderstorms are likely on Thursday as a front to our south moves into our area, temperatures with the clouds and rainfall will be a little lower than today but the humidity will be slightly higher.
Friday and Saturday look to be very pleasant summer days with plenty of sunshine both days. Temperatures will be slightly below normal and the humidity will be low.
Another disturbance may cause some showers on Sunday, high temperatures will continue to be slightly below normal.
High pressure then builds into our area for early next week providing more seasonably cool temperatures with low humidity. No high heat or humidity is in the forecast for the next several days, quite a difference from last year when 11 of the last 13 days in July were well up into the 90s.
