Tuesday there is a chance for possible storms in the morning and afternoon before drying up. Wednesday will be mostly cloudy with a chance to see some sun in the afternoon, before more potential storms arrive on Thursday. Temperatures are expected to remain above average in the 80s throughout next week.
