A look ahead
High pressure takes control Friday and Saturday. That means mostly sunny skies Friday with low humidity, and partly sunny skies Saturday with moderate humidity. Highs both days should be in the mid-80s to near 90. Friday and Saturday night lows range from the mid-60s to low 70s. Confidence: Medium-High
High pressure looses its grip by Sunday and Monday. That allows a chance of showers and storms back into the forecast, but it remains to be seen how high of a chance. Highs are probably in the 80s to near 90 with moderate to high humidity. Confidence: Low
