Thursday and Friday will be about the same with rain chances slim. Highs in the 80's after morning lows in the 60's. Patchy fog may be around in the mornings.
The storm system that was expected Tuesday to come through over the weekend looks like it may stay more to our north. Staying muggy and warm over the weekend with still some rain chances.

Tuesday is seeing the first rain in a while. They are spotty though and not everyone will see rain this afternoon or evening.
After today, rain chances slim to none for Wednesday & Thursday. Friday will have a 20% chance. Then on Saturday a stronger storm system will move through and at least a 60% chance for showers or thunderstorms..some may be strong.

female monarchs lay their eggs.
