Summary: Chance of thunderstorms today, and tomorrow, and the next day, and the next day….

If it isn’t raining, it will likely be partly cloudy with winds out of the south southwest at 5 to 10 mph. Severe weather isn’t expected, but we are in the MARGINAL category (think level 1 of 5 levels of severe weather).

Tonight, expect a 30% chance of rain and storms and an overnight low temperature of about 65 degrees.
The rest of the week looks to be much of the same
You can expect Thursday and Friday to be much of the same as today. Both days have a 40% chance of rain with highs reaching in the mid 80’s.
Showers and storms are likely to pop during the afternoon daytime heating and dissipate or move out of the area by night. None of these showers currently are outlooked for severe weather, but one or two may grow strong enough to warrant a significant weather advisory (like yesterday) or a severe thunderstorm warning or two.
