You said you wanted a change in the weather? Well, here it comes. Rain will move in today, with severe thunderstorms possible Friday night, then a return to colder temperatures.

The chance of rain today is 80 percent, mainly after noon. Patchy fog will hang around from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. East wind will be at 6 mph. A tenth to quarter inch of rain is possible.

Tonight, we’ll have a 70 percent chance of rain, likely before 2 a.m., then showers and patchy fog. It will be cloudy and just 54. East southeast wind of 8 mph will shift to the south. A quarter to half inch of rain is possible.

Friday has an 80 percent chance of rain, too, with thunderstorms developing after 3 p.m.

The combination of increasing winds through a deep layer of the atmosphere, and improving instability, may permit a few of the thunderstorms to become severe. Damaging winds or an isolated brief, weak tornado will be possible.

Look for patchy fog through 1 p.m. We’ll have a very warm high of 67, with south wind at 5-8 mph. A quarter to half inch of rain is expected.
