Warmup starts to build Friday

The big warmup that is coming starts to build slowly. Alan Longstreet has what to expect.

A big warmup is coming, but it starts slow today. 

Clouds, fog, and a bit of mist remain possible today, but I think some sun will peek out this afternoon and that'll open the door to a brighter and warmer weekend. 

The building ridge responsible for the warm and dry weekend sticks around much of next week as we string together several near 80° days.

This is well above our early October normals, but it doesn't look like we'll be breaking any records.
