Through the weekend, mild and dry weather will continue. Even as temperatures cool a bit the first of the week, afternoon highs will remain above seasonal averages.

Other than a few mid to high level clouds, expect plenty of sunshine and comfortable early November temperatures. Highs will be in the upper 50s to low 60s Wednesday, and push up mainly into the 60s for highs on Thursday.

Thursday will be the warmest day of the week for most locations, with only a gradual decrease in temperatures through the weekend. Overnight readings will stay mainly in the upper 30s to low 40s.

A week disturbance Sunday night into Monday is on track temperatures back to the mid-50s for early next week, but that is still a little warmer than average for this time of year.
