It'll be a pleasant evening to spend some time outside — and a perfect night for the partial lunar eclipse!

The lunar eclipse will be at its peak at 11:13 p.m. and will be over just before 1 a.m. Friday.

The low will dip to the mid-60s.

Then, on Friday, it'll be a sunny and warm day, but still pleasant. The high will reach the mid-80s.

Heading into the weekend, humidity will be on the rise, and so will temperatures.

We will get back into the 90s both days, and it will feel like close to 100 degrees on Sunday with gusty winds.

There is no good organized chance of rain until next week.
