The First Warning Storm Team is tracking some unsettled weather.

As we head into this evening and overnight, we’re expecting skies to cloud up again. Lows will be a bit above normal in the mid to upper 40s. Conditions overnight look to remain dry. A stray sprinkle is not out of the question though. Some areas of patchy fog possible late.

Heading into Friday, expect mostly cloudy skies. A few scattered showers possible by the afternoon and into the overnight, as a stronger cold front crosses the area. Highs in the upper 50s to lower 60s. A lingering shower possible very early Saturday, but skies will clear quickly as high pressure builds in from the west. Highs Saturday in the mid to upper 50s. A bit cooler on Sunday with highs in the low to mid 50s. Conditions look to remain dry through Tuesday. We are tracking rain chances late Tuesday and Wednesday, but temperatures will be near 70.

Tonight: Mostly Cloudy. Lows in the upper 40s. Winds: S 5-10

Tomorrow: Mostly Cloudy, PM Scattered Showers (30%). Highs in the mid 60s. Winds: SE 5-10

Tropical Update

Hurricane Otto is weakening rapidly over southern Nicaragua. Otto is moving west at 12 mph and a faster motion toward the west or WSW is forecast to begin tonight and continue through early Saturday. On this track, the center of Otto will continue across southern Nicaragua and northern Costa Rica through this evening, and emerge off of the Pacific coast of southern Nicaragua or northern Costa Rica by early Friday. Continued rapid weakening is anticipated after Otto moves over the Pacific Ocean.

Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 15 miles from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 70 miles.
