Mostly cloudy skies will be with us for much of today, but don't be surprised to see a few breaks of sunshine from time to time. We'll also be watching for a couple of spotty showers developing during the afternoon. Most of the day won't be a washout, but having the umbrella nearby isn't a bad idea. High temperatures will reach the upper 70s.
