(KSLA) - We have beautiful sunshine around for now, but the rain chances will be going back up by next week. When they do, the humidity will also be going up as well. Take advantage now!
This evening will be almost perfect! There will barely be any clouds around with plenty of sunshine through sunset. Afterwards, it will remain nice and clear. Temperatures will be cooling down to the 60s.
Overnight, it will be nice and clear with no chance of rain. Clouds will be pretty vacant all night long. Temperatures will be cooling down to the upper 40s around the I-30 corridor and lower to mid 50s farther south. So, it will be a pleasant night.

Brandon Wales, the acting chief of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, conceded on Thursday the dozens of deadlines in the administration s new executive order will stretch the system as his agency and others work to enact President Joe Biden s wide-ranging plan to revamp the federal government s cybersecurity. I think the community is right to say this is ambitious, this is big, but I think that just reflects what s needed to confront the cybersecurity threats and risks that we face right now, Wales told reporters during an event hosted by the George Washington University s School of Media and Public Affairs.

The Veterans Benefits Administration is expecting its backlog of benefits claims to spike this summer as the office continues to reckon with the full impact of the pandemic and address claimants ushered in by Congressional mandates and the courts.
The backlog of claims is a chronic challenge that s long been the target of agency goals, but doubled over the course of the pandemic.
The backlog of disability compensation and pension claims requiring a rating decision that have been sitting for over 125 days is currently at 191,700 claims, said Thomas Murphy, the acting under secretary for benefits at the VBA during a hearing held by the Senate Committee on Veterans Affairs on May 12.
