<P>Today's Weather Story
<P>THIS  WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE NBC2 WEATHER STAFF. 
<P>IT IS NOT A VERBATIM OF WHAT IS BEING SAID, BUT IS THE FORECAST FOR OUR AREA.
<P>CHILLY START TO A MILD DAY
<P>The day started clear and chilly.  Our Friday looks pretty nice, though.  After the chill in the air to start the day, we'll see a whole lot of sunshine and temperatures this afternoon will warm into the mid 70s.  Winds from the NNE won't be as strong as the past couple of days; around 10 mph.  Humidity will be low, which will feel nice, but when combined with that northerly breeze, it sets us up for high fire danger today.  For Friday evening plans, we'll continue the clear skies, but it won't be as chilly as the past couple of nights.  Low tomorrow morning will be in the lower 50s with some upper 40s in inland cold spots.  Through the weekend, our temperatures will continue to rebound.  Highs will be in the lower 80s and lows will be in the lower 50s Saturday morning to the mid and upper 50s Sunday morning.  No rain is expected and humidity will still be rather low.  That means our fire danger will likely stay high.  Going into next week, there is a small chance for some showers on Tuesday, but even that doesn't look all that impressive at this time.  Otherwise, we stay dry.  Enjoy the sunshine!

<P>Full Forecast
<P>THIS  WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE NBC2 WEATHER STAFF. 
<P>IT IS NOT A VERBATIM OF WHAT IS BEING SAID, BUT IS THE FORECAST FOR OUR AREA.
<P>CHILLY START TO A MILD DAY
<P>The day started clear and chilly.  Our Friday looks pretty nice, though.  After the chill in the air to start the day, we'll see a whole lot of sunshine and temperatures this afternoon will warm into the mid 70s.  Winds from the NNE won't be as strong as the past couple of days; around 10 mph.  Humidity will be low, which will feel nice, but when combined with that northerly breeze, it sets us up for high fire danger today.  For Friday evening plans, we'll continue the clear skies, but it won't be as chilly as the past couple of nights.  Low tomorrow morning will be in the lower 50s with some upper 40s in inland cold spots.  Through the weekend, our temperatures will continue to rebound.  Highs will be in the lower 80s and lows will be in the lower 50s Saturday morning to the mid and upper 50s Sunday morning.  No rain is expected and humidity will still be rather low.  That means our fire danger will likely stay high.  Going into next week, there is a small chance for some showers on Tuesday, but even that doesn't look all that impressive at this time.  Otherwise, we stay dry.  Enjoy the sunshine!

Winds from the NNE won't be as strong as the past couple of days; around 10 mph.  Humidity will be low, which will feel nice, but when combined with that northerly breeze, it sets us up for high fire danger today.  For Friday evening plans, we'll continue the clear skies, but it won't be as chilly as the past couple of nights.  Low tomorrow morning will be in the lower 50s with some upper 40s in inland cold spots.  Through the weekend, our temperatures will continue to rebound.  Highs will be in the lower 80s and lows will be in the lower 50s Saturday morning to the mid and upper 50s Sunday morning.  No rain is expected and humidity will still be rather low.  That means our fire danger will likely stay high.  Going into next week, there is a small chance for some showers on Tuesday, but even that doesn't look all that impressive at this time.  Otherwise, we stay dry.  Enjoy the sunshine!

<P>Today's Weather Story
<P>THIS  WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE NBC2 WEATHER STAFF. 
<P>IT IS NOT A VERBATIM OF WHAT IS BEING SAID, BUT IS THE FORECAST FOR OUR AREA.
<P>CHILLY START TO A MILD DAY
<P>The day started clear and chilly.  Our Friday looks pretty nice, though.  After the chill in the air to start the day, we'll see a whole lot of sunshine and temperatures this afternoon will warm into the mid 70s.  Winds from the NNE won't be as strong as the past couple of days; around 10 mph.  Humidity will be low, which will feel nice, but when combined with that northerly breeze, it sets us up for high fire danger today.  For Friday evening plans, we'll continue the clear skies, but it won't be as chilly as the past couple of nights.  Low tomorrow morning will be in the lower 50s with some upper 40s in inland cold spots.  Through the weekend, our temperatures will continue to rebound.  Highs will be in the lower 80s and lows will be in the lower 50s Saturday morning to the mid and upper 50s Sunday morning.  No rain is expected and humidity will still be rather low.  That means our fire danger will likely stay high.  Going into next week, there is a small chance for some showers on Tuesday, but even that doesn't look all that impressive at this time.

<P>The day started clear and chilly.  Our Friday looks pretty nice, though.  After the chill in the air to start the day, we'll see a whole lot of sunshine and temperatures this afternoon will warm into the mid 70s.  Winds from the NNE won't be as strong as the past couple of days; around 10 mph.  Humidity will be low, which will feel nice, but when combined with that northerly breeze, it sets us up for high fire danger today.  For Friday evening plans, we'll continue the clear skies, but it won't be as chilly as the past couple of nights.  Low tomorrow morning will be in the lower 50s with some upper 40s in inland cold spots.  Through the weekend, our temperatures will continue to rebound.  Highs will be in the lower 80s and lows will be in the lower 50s Saturday morning to the mid and upper 50s Sunday morning.  No rain is expected and humidity will still be rather low.  That means our fire danger will likely stay high.  Going into next week, there is a small chance for some showers on Tuesday, but even that doesn't look all that impressive at this time.  Otherwise, we stay dry.  Enjoy the sunshine!
