After a soaking rain yesterday, we enter a holiday weekend with a mixed bag of weather. The first half of the weekend should turn out to be the better half in terms of conditions for outdoor activities. Temperatures during the period will be at or just below normal in the low-mid 70s.

Rest of today – heavy rains fell overnight into early this morning. Mostly sunny skies should give way later in the afternoon to a second round of more scattered showers. High temperatures in the mid-70s and maybe a touch higher depending how much sun we get.

Saturday – best day of the weekend as we get a respite from a near continuous chain of disturbances. Partly sunny with temperatures in the mid-70s.

Sunday – small chance for scattered showers, primarily early in the morning, mostly cloudy and cooler with temperatures in the upper-60s.

Monday (Memorial Day) – increased chance for showers and maybe even a couple thunderstorms. Mostly cloudy otherwise wirh high temperatures around 70F.
