.DISCUSSION...

Northeasterly flow just behind a stationary front will bring the
sea-breeze in by the late morning hours. This will bring chances
for scattered showers and isolated storms. Sustained winds will be
10-15 mph with gusts up to 20 mph by the afternoon but should
start to weaken after sunset. Daytime temperatures peak in the low
90s by the afternoon before cooling back into the upper 80s by the
