Temperatures will be above normal for this time of year for the next two days, along with mostly sunny skies, the National Weather Service said.
Thermometers will rise slightly higher than usual, with highs in the low 70s predicted for Thursday and Friday, the weather service said. After that, the weekend will be just a touch cooler.
"More clouds over the weekend should lead to highs in the upper 60s to around 70 degrees," the forecasters said.
Clouds may arrive on Saturday night, with chances of showers at 30%, rising to 40% for Sunday, the weather service said.
Look for nighttime lows in the upper 50s to low 60s over the next seven days, and by early next week daytime highs could creep back into the mid-70s.
