Tomorrow (Thursday): Our next cold front will be passing through early in the morning. There could be a sprinkle as it does so. The rest of the day will feature partly to mostly sunny skies and breezy conditions, along with cooler air. Highs will be near 50 and into the low 50s, which is pretty close to normal for the date. Winds will be out of the northwest around 10 to 15 mph, with gusts to 25 or 30 mph a good bet.
