A departing storm system will bring chilly air now through early next week. Highs on Wednesday will be in the upper 50s and highs through the weekend will be in the upper 60s. Unfortunately, we’ll see occasional nuisance showers Wednesday through the weekend. It won’t be a total washout, but it won’t totally be sunny either.
