Today’s weather is expected to bring east winds and dry air with a 50-60% chance of gusts reaching or exceeding 20mph in the afternoon. Drier east winds are expected to continue through Saturday, with a 20% chance that wind gusts could exceed 20 mph. Wind speeds are expected to decrease through the night and into Sunday.
