Mostly cloudy skies become partly cloudy overnight with temperatures dropping into the low 50&#8217;s. Winds from the northwest will gradually calm down by daybreak.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Friday:\u00a0<\/strong>Don&#8217;t expect any 80 degree temperatures tomorrow. We are under the influence of a new and cooler airmass behind the departing frontal system. Mostly sunny skies and much more seasonable with afternoon temperatures ranging from 60-64 degrees.
