       9/10: Awfully close to perfect but feeling nitpicky since it’s warmer than room temperature perfection and not fully feeling fall-like.

       Forecast in detail

       A second “Nice Day” in a row is on tap today. Tomorrow still ranks up there, but it’s a bit cloudier and a tad warmer. Sunday’s the dampest and muggiest day of the forecast, but it should clear out in time for the holiday Monday. At least there are no 90-degree days in sight?

       Sunday: Skies are partly to mostly cloudy. Although the timing and amounts of showers, perhaps a thunderstorm, or even a period of light rain aren’t high confidence, nothing too heavy is expected. If there’s longer-lasting rain, it may lean toward midday hours versus afternoon, as it appears now. Don’t plan on it being much of a bother just yet. High temperatures may be held back in the upper 70s to around 80 again with the extra clouds and potential for showers. Stay tuned. Confidence: Medium

       A look ahead

       Sunday night: Showers may continue overnight. Light, if so. Skies are generally mostly cloudy otherwise. Low temperatures merely cool to the low and mid-60s. Confidence: Medium

       Skies turn sunnier and we feel more comfortable Monday (Labor Day) and Tuesday with high temperatures in the low to mid-80s. The last of the clouds and any final sprinkles should clear quickly on Monday morning, as drier air moves in. We may have some breezes around both days but nothing too gusty as it looks now. Confidence: Medium
