The holiday weekend forecast looks a little unsettled starting tonight. Rain and storms move in from the southwest overnight and last through the early morning hours. Lows overnight won't be too bad in the lower 60s. Gusty south winds stick with us through tomorrow.

Expect a few dry periods through the afternoon on Saturday, with highs reaching the 80s. Rain chances pick back up Saturday night and last through Sunday morning. This time period could be when strong to severe storms pick up.

Highs remain in the lower 80s through Memorial day weekend, as do storm chances.
