What does it say about this summer when the worst part of the forecast is a thunderstorm in the afternoon? We're still looking at highs in the upper 70s (Skilling Central believes the mercury could reach 80), sunshine and breezy winds from the northwest as the mildest summer in recent memory continues as turn the corner to August.

Expect more showers this evening before things clear a bit overnight, with overnight lows in the upper 50s to lower 60s.
