It's official -- almost -- summer ish ere

Summer arrives today, at 7:59 p.m., when we reach the summer solstice, The spot in the Earth's orbit when the sun appears at its northernmost position in the sky.

Although we'll only have 25 minutes of sunlight left in the day.

So what does that mean for the weather? Not much.

Today we have more of the same warnings that we've heard most of the week from the National Weather Service: A slight chance of rain and thunderstorms in the afternoon. Rain aside, we'll have cloudy skies, a high temperature near 77 degrees and south winds between 10 and 13 mph.

Tonight, we may see more rain through the night, when the temperature hits about 60 degrees.

But check this out: tomorrow, Saturday, the sun makes its return, high in the sky, with temperatures reaching 83 degrees and west winds between 7 and 11 mph.

Tomorrow night there's another slight chance of rain and storms, with temperatures in the mid 60s and mild south winds.

Back to gloom Sunday, with a good chance of rain and storms in the late morning. Also, expect strong south winds, gusting upwards of 25 mph. Temperatures should hit the high 70s with cloudy skies.

It's the same story Sunday night, with temperatures int he mid 60s, and a pretty high chance rain and maybe thunderstorms.

And Monday sounds like today, with a chance of rain and temperatures in the high 70s.
