As the city emerges into a partly sunny morning, the conditions are expected to improve progressively, clearing up as the day advances.
The evening will maintain the calm, ushering in a mostly clear night with a low around 47 degrees and a gentle northwest wind easing to 5 to 10 mph. While today's brisk conditions might require an extra layer, the week ahead promises more agreeable temperatures. Today, "partly sunny, then gradually becoming sunny, with a high near 66.
