Sunshine and Rain - A Perfect Holiday Weekend to Make Memories

  • News
It's finally here! The start of the summer season! And as usual weather in late May can be quite fickle. Unsettled weather will continue into the Memorial Day weekend. Although it may not be 100% dry, any showers we receive should not dampen any outdoor plans. So expect a decent weekend, but if you were hoping for it to be a sunny, warm and rain free each day, you will be disappointed. Friday will be the warmest day of the holiday weekend as a breezy, dry westerly wind will negate any seabreeze from forming. Highs will climb into the mid 70s.

Temperatures could reach 70 before winds will shift southerly during the afternoon which will drop temperatures back into the 60s. A frontal system will approach from the south late Saturday bringing more clouds and the chance of some showers.
