Saturday also looks mainly dry with plenty of sunshine and highs in the low to mid 90s inland to upper 80s at the beaches. Winds will come in from the east the next couple days up to 18 mph in the afternoon. Sunday, we'll have a chance for spotty showers and storms as moisture increases slightly but overall it still looks fairly dry.
