Temperatures are into the lower 70s this afternoon along with sunshine and it's been a beautifully bright, mild Wednesday. Pleasant, quiet weather continues through this evening and tonight before there is at least a chance at a few thunderstorms early Thursday. Winds will start to really crank out of the south Friday and Saturday helping temperatures get back into the 80s for the end of the week and the weekend. Along with that increase in wind there is an increasing opportunity for a few showers and storms this weekend.
