TONIGHT: Overnight lows cool to the mid-40s as winds continue out of the northwest at 5-10 mph. Skies remain mostly clear.

TOMORROW: Saturday welcomes plenty of sunshine with partly cloudy skies and highs surging into the lower 80s with winds out of the southwest gusting up to 30 mph.

EXTENDED: Sunday sees similar wind conditions to Saturday with highs into the mid-80s. Skies become mostly sunny Sunday afternoon with lower dewpoints leading to an increased risk of fire weather. Monday remains dry and partly cloudy throughout much of the day until the late evening/ overnight hours where stronger storms look to slide into the region exiting by late Tuesday. The second half of the week welcomes more rain chances with a cooldown.
