It's amazingly warm this afternoon, but we'll fall shy of the record high for today. That probably won't be the case tomorrow. I'm forecasting a high-temperature tomorrow at 83 degrees. The record high for the day is 82. We could make it back-to-back record highs on Thursday.
Along with the warmth, it's going to be windy the next few days. A bit of a cooling influence from the lake returns by Friday afternoon, followed by more clouds and eventually rain Saturday afternoon. Much cooler weather arrives by Sunday.
