       Forecast in detail

       Another short-sleeve-shirt day in November is a treat but it gets the boot overnight as brief showers accompany a strong cold front. With a little luck skies should clear just in time to view the overnight lunar eclipse. A seasonably cool and dry weekend is kind to those stocking up for a Thanksgiving feast.

       Today (Thursday): Sunshine dominates much of the day but clouds start to sneak in later in the afternoon. That’s when showers become possible, especially in our western areas. Breezes from the southwest gust up to 30 mph guaranteeing a few leaf showers! Highs reach the upper 60s to lower 70s. Confidence: Medium-High
