    Tonight: Another comfortable and cool night is in store with lows making it into the upper 50s to lower 60s under those smoky skies with no cloud cover.  Sunday: Expect continued haze from the Canadian wildfire smoke with a bit more late morning and afternoon cloud cover compared to Saturday. These clouds may squeeze out a few raindrops for some of us during the afternoon, otherwise we’ll stay dry with highs in the low 80s.
