Monday night storms bring slightly cooler temperatures

1 year 8 months ago
A partly cloudy start to Monday with mild temperatures. We’ll start in the mid to upper-50s and warm into the upper 70s. The record high for March 4 is 79 and we could meet or beat that. Gusty winds that took a break overnight will pick back up through the day.
