Today we will have cloudy skies with periods of rain into the evening, some of the rain may be heavy at times that can cause some local flooding, temperatures will not rise that much as a cold front has settled to our south and highs will be in the 70s which then will end another streak of 80 degree plus days that started on July 5th.

Rain should end by Friday morning and we should have a dry Friday afternoon, temperatures will be near normal.
