- Light rain moves in during the morning and could become steadier by the afternoon.
- Winds pick up, with gusts up to 30 mph—so hold onto your hats!

- More scattered showers are expected throughout the day.
- A few rumbles of thunder aren’t out of the question.

Saturday: Slowly Improving, But Still Cool
