TOGETHER WITH
Good morning, neighbors. š Thanks for starting your day here.
š¦ļø Weekend weather: Friday and Saturday both look warm and humid with highs near 89Ā°, and each day brings the chance for afternoon or evening thunderstorms. Sunday looks like the pick of the weekend, with mostly sunny skies, a hot high near 92Ā°, and only a slight chance of rain.
I sorted through everything happening around the area so you don't have to. Here are a few I thought you may find intriguing.
Thank you for reading!
