occasional high clouds streaming overhead from northwest to
southeast. Temperatures will warm back into the upper 50s to mid
60s this afternoon, with RH values falling to near 30 percent.

chance for light rain along a cold front Saturday night.
Temperatures will be fairly mild ahead of the cold frontal
passage.
