Evening storms, then a much milder Wednesday

There is a highly conditional severe threat this evening. If temperatures can rise into the 80s by 5:00 p.m. it will boost fuel and the severe potential for storms this evening between 7:00 and 11:00 p.m. The cooler and cloudier it stays the lower the severe threat. All threats are possible, especially damaging wind gusts near strong storms.

A fall front will make for brisk day for early September as high struggle to reach 70, aided by a cool northwest breeze at 10 to 15 mph. The midweek is fair with sunshine and temps recover to end the week. Mild weather lasts through the weekend.

Tonight: Evening storms, low of 62.

Wednesday: Mostly sunny, breezy, high of 70.

Thursday: Sunny, high of 74.

Friday: Partly cloudy, high of 76.
