Weather Forecast ☔ Sun, Sep 6 — 85° / 68° · Overcast with rain showers ⛅ Mon, Sep 7 — 94° / 67° · Partly Cloudy 🌤️ Tue, Sep 8 — 96° / 68° · Mostly Sunny ⛅ Wed, Sep 9 — 96° / 69° · Partly Cloudy ⛅ Thu, Sep 10 — 95° / 66° · Partly Cloudy ☀️ Fri, Sep 11 — 92° / 64° · Sunny ⛅ Sat, Sep 12 — 91° / 65° · Partly Cloudy 🌧️ That Sunday rain isn't a random fluke — it's moisture riding in from Tropical Storm Marie, which is expected to strengthen into a hurricane off Mexico this week. It's not tracking straight at us, but it's close enough to bring real downpours, so keep an umbrella handy and don't be shocked if it comes down heavy at times. On the plus side, an 85° high will feel downright cool. After that, we climb back into the mid-90s for the rest of the week — but compared to our recent triple-digit stretch, that's basically a breeze. **Fair warning:* we're not meteorologists!
