bit of breeze, as well, to say the least, southwest, crank at 20 miles per hour, but 93 is the call for the day today, will drop to 73 degrees, and nothing more than few clouds, then looking forwards in the eyewitness weather seven day, frontal boundary, triggering couple of showers or thunderstorms in scattered fashion throughout the second half of our saturday, behind it, not much after cool
