Before the rain moves in Wednesday, temperatures should still be toasty with a high of 82 degrees. It’s slightly milder than the 87-degree high that was recorded Tuesday, breaking the record for the hottest Nov. 18.
During the rain, the high should drop down to the mid-70s. It’s expected to slowly keep dropping to the upper-60s over the weekend, potentially accelerated by another band of rain chances that could move in Saturday night.
