With the eclipse behind us, the focus returns to the spring warmth. Or at least in the next two days, the diminishing warmth. Monday's highs in the 60s now are shoved west, away from the coast.

Weather
Colder air will shift in for the start of the weekend. At this point, it appears short-lived as we move back near 60 for Sunday and in the 60s for Marathon Monday. Not ideal running weather, but with an expected tailwind, all is not lost.
