PM Update: Today was the warmest of the year so far, and it's warmer Wednesday.

Temperatures were right around 80 this afternoon. The city reached 80 for the first time this year, which is about 10 days later than average in our current climate. If that wasn’t warm enough for you, temperatures rise even higher tomorrow. Some mid-80s seem likely, along with a little humidity. First up, a pleasant evening to get out and about. Just watch out for all that pollen!

Through Tonight: Partly to mostly cloudy conditions are a good bet through the night. There could be a passing sprinkle late. Lows are in the mid- and upper 50s.

Tomorrow (Wednesday): Get ready for a taste of summer. Plentiful sun sends temperatures into the low and mid-80s for highs. You might also notice an increase in humidity as southerly winds pump moisture into the region.

Related, but different conversations. Wait till next week and it will be unseasonably cold.

It's my b'day (59) and after such a crappy year - continued covid lockdowns, still working from home, cancer diagnosis/treatment, and our elderly dog passing away - the kids are asking where I want to go for dinner. Hubby doesn't want to go actually sit "in" a place to eat, so we're hoping to find a table outside at Grain. If not, I guess we'll order our dinner to go.

Already picked my meal out: avocado citrus salad topped with salmon with an appetizer of crab nachos, followed up at the end of the night with a little b'day cake from Bing's Bakery May even hold off on some meds so I can have a celebratory grapefruit rosemary spritzer!
