clear and mild68°F

Clear and cool before dawn, the air near 55°F and the streets quiet. The sun came up into an empty sky and the morning warmed quickly. By mid-afternoon it was near 73° with a little cloud drifting over, enough to break the glare without cooling anything. A soft breeze from the west. Evening stayed warm and mostly clear, the air near 66° late with the day’s heat still coming off the pavements.
