Thursday will be much the same, with a high of 87 and a low of 68.

For Friday, look for mostly sunny skies and a high near 89. The low will be 70.

Then our run of decent summer days goes back to hot and muggy, with a 30 percent chance of showers and storms Saturday, after 5 p.m. The high will be 94 and the low, with the same 30 percent chance of rain, will be 71.

Sunday’s going to be a repeat, with a 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms and a high of 94 again. Sunday night, the chance of rain lingers and the low will be 72.
