These storms will die out tonight, and tomorrow will be a milder and more settled day, a fine swan-song for music fans attending the Folk Festival. Temps. will peak in the high 20’s Mon. under sunny skies before cooling off for mid-week. Sig. rain, however, is not expected until later in the week when temps. could drop into the teens for day-time highs.
