Today's Weather: Lookout Weekend, Here I Come

By Lisa White in News on Jun 19, 2015 1:30PM

We're ready for the weekend and we have a lovely few days of weather to help us enjoy it. We've got a generous amount of sunshine today with less humidity and cooler temps, with highs this afternoon in the mid 70s. It might be chilly for some who enjoy a hot summer in the city, but overall a pleasant day.

On Saturday the heat will creep back up again, with highs in the upper 80s and heavier humidity returning. We could have an isolated thunderstorm in the cards later in the day or at night. Those showers could carry into Sunday morning, but then the skies should clear up and we'll have another more mild, partly sunny day to wrap up the weekend.
