The weather should cooperate, but you might want to bring along an umbrella just in case.

According to the National Weather Service, the Westchase area will see a weekend high temperature around 92 on Saturday with highs also in the low 90s on Friday and Sunday.

Rain chances are reasonably high today, July 6, coming in at 40 percent, but they lessen out in the evening hours to 20 percent.
