Weather the storm, then it's all summer all weekend

Don't shoot the messenger. If you do, you'll miss the good news at the end.

Today: As you can probably see, we've got rain -- showers, thunderstorms, downpours and likely some local flooding. But the National Weather Service is forecasting an end to the rain by late afternoon and possibly a few hours of sunshine, bringing the temperature up to the high 60s.

Tonight's looking foggy, with partly cloudy skies, temperatures staying pretty close to daytime temperatures, dipping to about 61 degrees, and mild southwest winds.

But if you like summer, you'll like what comes next. Saturday we should have mostly sunny skies, southwest winds and a temperatures shooting past the 70s and 80s and reaching 91 degrees.

Saturday night will stay mostly clear, with temperatures falling to a balmy 71 degrees and calm west winds.

And then! Sunday and Monday look like mid-summer, with temperatures hitting the mid 90s and clear, sunny skies.

Sunday night, 71 degrees and clear.

It's not all good news, though. The National Weather Service reminds us to be on the lookout for heat stroke this weekend with the high temperatures and humidity. The two are also possible "pop up thunderstorms" at any time during the next few days.
