Today brings continued smoke concerns through the first half of the day, though visibilities should gradually improve from west to east as winds shift and the smoke layer lifts. Skies will be mostly cloudy through the day with temperatures climbing to 27°C. Significant weather is expected in the evening and overnight, with numerous showers and thunderstorms.
Overnight temperatures will only fall to 16°C, with increasing southeast winds of 10km/h. Tomorrow will feature lingering showers and thunderstorms in the morning, then conditions will gradually improve through the afternoon and evening. Temperatures will climb only to 24°C in the afternoon—noticeably cooler than in recent days.
Skies will remain mostly cloudy through midday, then break up to partly cloudy by evening. Winds will shift to the northwest at 20km/h with gusts to 35km/h, ushering in the cooler, drier air mass. Tomorrow night will be pleasant with partly cloudy skies, diminishing winds, and temperatures falling to 12°C.
This cooler pattern is expected to persist into early next week, with additional chances of showers possible Monday and Tuesday as another system approaches from the west.
