Thursday starts with areas of fog and mostly cloudy skies, so the morning commute may come with a few low-visibility spots. Temperatures begin in the mid-60s, but it already feels like 69 degrees in some places. Winds stay light early, then turn east-northeast at about 9 mph with gusts up to 22 mph as the day gets going.
By afternoon, the fog gives way to a warmer setup with breaks of sunshine. The high reaches about 85. Rain is not expected, with only a 1% chance during the day, so it looks like a dry stretch for lunch plans, ballgames or a walk outside. It may feel closer to 89 during the warmest part of the afternoon.
Thursday evening stays quiet with partly cloudy skies and a light east wind. After sunset, temperatures ease back through the 70s, and overnight conditions remain calm and dry. The low by early Friday drops to about 65. There is a small 25% chance of rain overnight, but most spots should stay dry.
Tree pollen is high today, while grass, mold and ragweed levels are low. If allergies have been giving you trouble lately, trees are the main thing to blame.
Friday looks a little cooler, with a high near 79 and a low around 64. Expect mostly cloudy skies overall and another mainly dry day, although there is a small chance of a passing shower.
