Today (Friday): Expect fog and drizzle in the morning. A few showers and even a few thunderstorms are possible almost at any time, although they should favor the afternoon. Overall, most of us don’t see too much rain. Cloudiness helps ease high temperatures into the upper 50s or even the 60s in places that get enough sunlight. Notable breezes blow from the east and northeast between 10 and 20 mph. Confidence: average
This evening: Clouds continue with showers possible, but no heavy showers expected. Northeast breezes should ease a bit, but it’s still cool with temperatures reaching the mid-40s to near 50. Confidence: Medium-High

Tomorrow (Saturday): A little sunshine in the morning, but clouds return at midday and especially in the afternoon. A quick wave of showers and thunderstorms could arrive mid-afternoon, with higher rain chances late in the afternoon. High temperatures in the low to mid 60s have solid confidence behind them, but ultimate cloudiness levels are less certain. Trust: medium-high
Tomorrow evening: Showers remain possible but will ease over time. Temperatures drop to the upper 40s to lower 50s. Confidence: average
Sunday: We should have more sunshine than today and Saturday. A few showers may form, but they should be fewer than in recent days if this is the case. The possible temperature range is a bit wider than Saturday, but so far it appears to peak a few degrees near 65 across much of the region. Confidence: average
Sunday night: The weather will become calmer and less cloudy with the chance of rain decreasing quickly during the evening. However, before dawn we could see fog and even drizzle. Temperatures are lowest in the upper 40s to lower 50s. Confidence: average
Sunny and warm Monday should also be accompanied by rain-free conditions. High temperatures are expected to be within a few degrees of 75. Confidence: Medium-High
The clouds should return Tuesday, but rain amounts are less certain, which also relates to temperature forecasts. So far, with the afternoon hours in the center of showers – which look light – we should be able to handle the low to mid 70s. If rain chances mostly evaporate or we wait until later in the evening, we could reach around 80. Rain all day would keep us in the 60s. Confidence: Low-Medium
