Tonight it will partly cloudy with pleasant temps. Lows are forecast to be in the upper 50s to lower 60s inland.

For those who enjoy cooler temperatures this time of year, you are in luck! By Saturday morning, most areas are expected to see lows fall into the 50s. For some inland areas, there's a chance temperatures may briefly fall into the upper 40s. Think about that...40s in June. #ncwx
