RAIN & STORMS POSSIBLE AT TIMES SATURDAY… Scattered showers and thunderstorms will be possible late Friday night into Saturday. Isolated strong storms may become possible with gusty winds being the primary concern.

Next week looks increasingly mild and nice. Afternoon highs will be around the 70 degree mark on Monday and Tuesday.

MAINLY SUNNY FOR NEW YEAR’S DAY… Happy New Year! I hope your 2026 is your best year yet.

Mostly sunny skies this morning will give way to increasingly cloudy skies this evening after sunset. Afternoon highs will be in the mid 60s.

Have a wonderful New Year’s Day!
