There is a slight chance for showers and thunderstorms Sunday afternoon and evening for our far western counties. Eclipse day continues to show the greatest chance for partly cloudy skies, along with a chance for some isolated storms through the morning. Temperatures will reach close to 87 at the start of the eclipse and fall to the low 70s by mid-eclipse, due to the lack of solar insulation. As the eclipse ends, temperatures will rise back into the upper 80s, approaching 90. A better chance of storms moves in Tuesday afternoon ahead of a cold front.
