My 2 cents: Friday October 03, 2014 the 276th Day of Year The much-needed rain will be slowly moving out this morning. It will be noticeably cooler as highs will only reach the low to mid 70s today. There will be off and on sprinkles through the morning and early afternoon. The breeze kicks in around lunch time, and that will help clear our skies. Lows tonight hovering around the 40 degree mark. It will be breezy on Saturday with high only reaching the low to mid 60s. The 40s again for Saturday night. Sunday, we are looking at partly cloudy skies and warmer with highs in the low to mid 70s.
