FRIDAY: The heat eases a bit but it's still hot, with partly sunny skies and a high of 90. We could get a pop-up afternoon or evening pop-up shower or thunderstorm as a cold front slides through.
In case of rain on Friday afternoon, please have rowers pack accordingly.​


SATURDAY: Behind Friday night's cold front, highs drop to more seasonable levels. Look for a nice start to the weekend with partly sunny skies and a much cooler high around 72.
