Through Tonight: A quick-hitting shower or thundershower will be possible through about sunset. It will be a pleasant evening on the whole, if on the cool side compared with typical mid-June. Winds from the west should help keep smoke on the low side, although it may temporarily increase in coverage at times — probably mainly below unhealthy levels for the general population. Lows will range across the 50s under otherwise mainly clear skies.

Tomorrow (Saturday): There could be some haze, especially early until winds kick up a bit. Generally, though, it will be decent. Cleaner air should win out and temperatures will warm up. There will be lots of sun, as temperatures reach the mid-80s or so for highs. Winds will still be mainly out of the west, around 10 mph, with gusts upward of 20 mph.
Sunday: We’ll have a mix of sun and clouds, with the most sun in the first half of the day. Clouds will billow in the afternoon warmth, potentially sparking a storm or two. Otherwise, highs will be near 90 as humidity rises toward moderate levels late in the day.
