Forecast in detail
Warm, sunny high pressure continues to dominate our first week of October in contrast to last week’s cool and damp spell. For heat-complainers, lower to mid-80s are nowhere near as hot as the early-September upper 90s. These conditions continue to qualify for “Nice Day” status until a cold front brings clouds and shower chances by Friday, and then much cooler 60s this weekend.
Today (Tuesday): Another nice, sunny day with highs in the lower to mid-80s. Low to moderate humidity is expected with dew points near 60 to the low 60s. Light breezes blow from the northeast at 5 to 10 mph. Confidence: High
Tonight: Mostly clear and comfortable with lows from the mid- to upper 50s in the suburbs to the low 60s in the city, as light winds blow from the southeast at about 5 mph. Confidence: High
