       7/10: Lots of sunshine early, but late-day showers are a complication

       Express forecast

       Today: Mostly sunny a.m., partly sunny p.m. with showers. Highs: 79-84. Tonight: Evening showers or storm, partly cloudy overnight. Lows: 55-60. Tomorrow: Sunny, pleasant. Highs: 70-74.

       Forecast in detail

       Today offers a touch of mugginess and then brief rain chances but, wow, is that a small price to pay for another stretch of amazing autumn weather Wednesday through Friday. The stretch presents a surplus of sunshine, comfortably warm daytime temperatures, crisp, cool nights and very low humidity. Nice weather continues into the weekend, but there is a small chance of showers Sunday.

       Today (Tuesday): Partly to mostly sunny conditions in the morning with clouds increasing later in the afternoon as highs reach the low to mid-80s. Humidity edges noticeably upward with dew points in the low to mid-60s. A sprinkle can’t be ruled out any time, but scattered showers and storm chances increase late in the afternoon into the evening. Most activity is brief, but an isolated intense storm or two with downpours, gusty winds and perhaps small hail can’t be ruled out. Winds blow from the southwest direction at 5 to 10 mph, but could get breezier at times in the afternoon and briefly around any storms. Confidence: Medium-High

       A look ahead

       At this point, the weekend is looking really nice too with a sunny Saturday delivering low humidity and highs in the low 70s. Saturday night should be mostly clear again with cool overnight levels in low to mid-50s. Sunday should also be partly to mostly sunny, but a touch warmer in the mid-70s. There is a chance a weather system could near the area with more clouds and showers by the afternoon, but this seems more likely to wait until Monday. Confidence: High for Saturday and Low-Medium for Sunday
