This low pressure will move up to the north but well see some cloud cover on thursday and friday but despite the clouds, temperatures will climb up into the 60s and could have record warmth for the weekend. So, tomorrow plenty of sunshine, 51 degrees. On wednesday, partly sunny, 56. Thursday 60 degrees despite more clouds than sunshine, maybe even a sprinkle. Friday clouds and some sun, 61 degrees and look at this on saturday we warm it up to 63 degrees. Thats just 2 degrees shy of the record high. Sunday, though, we lit that 65 sao.
