SATURDAY: Skies will gradually transition to mostly sunny through the morning hours with early AM temperatures in the mid 40s. Expect dry and breezy conditions by mid-morning with 7-16 mph sustained winds and gusts up the 25 mph out of the south. Saturday’s high will be above the seasonal average in the mid to upper 70s with lighter winds by evening.
