We received some badly needed rain on Thursday – and we’re not done yet.
A lot of clouds and an few scattered showers for Friday.
High temperatures continue to be noticeably cooler, down to the upper 70s is all we’ll get thanks to mostly cloudy skies.
As the weekend approaches, rain remains in the forecast call. Saturday starts with sunshine, but by the evening hours rain returns, and hangs with us for much of Sunday.
