Thursday is projected to be a beautiful day with mostly sunny skies and highs in the 70s. Friday is also supposed to be nice.

The pollen count, however, is quite high as oak trees near peak pollen season. People with allergies should plan accordingly.

A cold front will move into the area late Saturday bringing rain and storms. The First Alert Weather Team is monitoring the threat of severe weather.
