There is a 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms after 2 p.m. The stronger storms may produce very high winds and hail. Expect mostly sunny conditions today with humidity a bit higher than yesterday, but still not too oppressive. They mention that gusty winds approaching severe criteria (around 60 mph) will be the biggest threat, but that a severe thunderstorm watch is unlikely. For now due to the uncertainty the rain chance is held at 30%, but this may increase as the forecast confidence increases. Low near: 73. High near 89.
