SMOKY WITH A SHOWER
Expect another evening of eerie looking skies as wildfire smoke seeps back into the region. An air quality alert remains in effect until midnight for all of the region. The worst of the smoke and highest probability for unhealthy air quality will be for southern areas through dinnertime.
Next a cold front will track from north to south 5-10 PM this evening with a few showers/thunderstorms. Behind that front, smoke will clear!
LATE WEEK IMPROVEMENTS
The Zip Trip at Castle Island from 7-10 AM Friday looks great. Sunshine is back in the forecast with morning 60s and 70s. Afternoon highs will reach the lower 80s with low humidity lasting.
WEEKEND SHOWERS
Saturday won’t be the brightest as we’re expecting hazy and smoky skies to return. Clouds will also thicken up as a storm system approaches. Rain will likely developing in the afternoon from west to east, peak overnight with gusty winds and downpours, and end early Sunday.
The latest models have Sunday clearing out pretty quickly, which is good news for outdoor plans.
