Another nice day on Friday. Partly cloudy, highs in the upper 70s, and light wind.
The weekend forecast looks good. Expect highs in the upper 70s to near 80 with mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies and slim rain chances.
A few showers are possible on Monday as a cold front moves through. That front will also bring in even cooler and less humid air for midweek.

Tropical Update
Kirk is now a major hurricane over the central tropical Atlantic. A general NW to north motion is expected through the weekend. Kirk is a category 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Strengthening is forecast over the next couple of days.
Tropical Storm Leslie forms over the eastern tropical Atlantic. A continued west to NW motion is expected during the next few days. Steady strengthening is forecast, and Leslie is expected to become a hurricane in a couple of days.
A broad area of low pressure is likely to develop over the Gulf of Mexico late this weekend or early next week. Tropical or subtropical development could be limited by the system's potential interaction with a frontal boundary.
