Late Wednesday gusty winds of 20-30 mph died before 10 p.m., giving way to calm conditions overnight.
A Thursday high of 67 is forecast before a 73 on Friday, a 74 on Saturday and 73 on Sunday. The normal this time of year is 67.
The lone blemish in the forecast is a period of gusty winds around 25 mph from late Saturday morning into the late afternoon, said weather service meteorologist Kate Guillet.
Low temperatures will be in the upper 40s over the weekend.
