Saturday was partly to mostly cloudy and cool once again with early AM lows around 40 rising up into the upper 50s in the mid-late afternoon. Winds calmed down from yesterday, but did continue at a moderate clip out of the NW most of the day.

Partly Cloudy, cool, dry conditions should persist through Tuesday with highs into the 60s over this weekend with lows in the low 40s, rising into the low 70s and low 50s on Tuesday.  Cooling showers should visit us on Wednesday, nothing really heavy as it looks now then cooling down close to the freezing mark Thursday morning after the rain clears with some warmup towards the following weekend.
