       6/10: Another overcast forecast, but who can complain much with 70s for highs?

       Express forecast

       Today: Mostly cloudy. Highs: 72 to 76. Tonight: Cloudy. Lows: 58 to 64. Tomorrow: Partly cloudy. Highs: 78 to 82.

       Forecast in detail

       Clouds have been tough to shake as low pressure stalled off the coast is super slow to head farther out to sea. We may not break free of them until some time Wednesday, when we begin a stretch of 80-degree weather. The summery span ends late Saturday, when a cold front arrives with showers and storms. It finally feels like autumn again on Sunday.

       Today (Tuesday): Gray skies persist, but it’s mild, with highs in the mid-70s. Humidity levels are moderate (dew points in the low 60s in the afternoon), while light winds from the northeast continue to keep that feel of moisture in the air. Confidence: Medium-High

       Tomorrow (Wednesday): As the coastal low-pressure zone pulls away, we should see more sunshine at times, but it may still range from partly cloudy to partly sunny as highs warm to the upper 70s to low 80s. Humidity is still moderate with dew points in the low 60s. Light winds from the east early in the day should shift to come more from the west and north by the afternoon. Confidence: Medium-High

       Tomorrow night: Still a few clouds around as lows fall to the upper 50s to near 60 again. Confidence: Medium-High

       A look ahead

       More serious sunshine should finally break free on Thursday with warmer highs in the low to mid-80s. Humidity is just enough to be felt slightly. Thursday night may see a few clouds with lows ranging through the 60s. Confidence: Medium-High

       Friday has a better chance for more widespread mid-80s for highs under mostly sunny skies. Mugginess increases some compared with Thursday. Friday night offers a few clouds with lows mainly in the low to mid-60s. Confidence: Medium-High

       The upcoming weekend brings a bit of both summer and autumn. Saturday delivers summery highs in the low to mid-80s, partly sunny skies and scattered to isolated late-afternoon to evening thundershowers. Saturday night sees lingering clouds early and perhaps a shower, before gradual clearing and lows in the 50s. Sunday offers autumn-like highs in the 60s to low 70s, with much lower humidity as sunny skies prevail. Confidence: Medium
