       Forecast in detail

       Between the strong winds and scattered showers, warmth today is wasted. Any thunderstorms that form late this afternoon and evening are capable of having damaging winds, so be careful out there. The first weekend in April is tranquil by comparison, with highs around 60 and a good deal of sun, especially on Saturday.

       Today (Thursday): March is definitely not going out like a lamb, with south winds gusting to 45 mph. Intermittent showers are possible amid dry windows as temperatures climb to the upper 60s to lower 70s. The warmth is enough to set off some late-day thunderstorms capable of producing damaging winds, and even a tornado is possible. Confidence: Medium-High

       Tonight: The risk of localized severe storms remains possible through the evening, while southwest winds are still gusty (35 mph). Things should quiet after midnight, back to light, scattered showers. Lows reach the upper 40s to lower 50s. Locally, up to an inch of rain is possible. Confidence: Medium-High
