Clouds and showers again today. More sunshine and very comfortable to end the week.
Mostly cloudy today with scattered showers and isolated storms. Highs will only reach the mid 70s and it will still be muggy. Strong E/NE winds coupled with the raised river levels from recent rainfall could lead to some minor level tidal flooding over the next several high tide cycles.

The weekend forecast looks good. Expect highs in the upper 70s to low 80s with mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies and slim rain chances.
