Today's Forecast

• 89°
• 71°

We seem to be settling into a pattern of wet and active weeks and mostly dry weekends. This weekend is no exception with perfect conditions for enjoying all those summer-time activities!

Valley fog will be setting in by early Sunday morning and it could get thick in a few spots, but it wont be anywhere as thick as it was Saturday morning! We will see lots of sunshine and a southerly breeze boosting those temperatures to the upper 80s by the afternoon. Storms will cast clouds on our western sky Sunday night, but we should end the weekend on a dry note.

But we cant carry the tune through next week. A weak storm system to the west will draw thick moisture and a front up into Iowa where it will stall. Add in some tropical energy now spinning over the SW US and it looks like our storm chances will be pretty good on Monday, Tuesday and even Wednesday.

Here comes another active week, so I hope you can enjoy the quiet weekend!
