Today will feel like July. Highs will reach the upper 80s, possibly breaking the record of 87 degrees setback in 1941. Closer to the immediate coast temperatures will be in the 70s due to a sea breeze. A passing shower or storm is possible after midnight, but there's a better chance of storms North and West of the city. Highs will remain in the mid to upper 80s away from the coast on Thursday.
