Rain Looming, Brennan's Jazz and Blog for Patch

Today is June 5. It is the 156th day of the year. We are under a waxing crescent moon. Sunset will occur about 8:03 p.m. Here are five things to know:

1. The National Weather Service forecast for today calls for partly sunny skies with a high near 63 degrees falling to around 59 degrees by 5 p.m. There's a 20 percent chance of showers after 11 p.m. with an overnight low around 54 degrees.

2. Looking for a way to wind down the weekend and get ready for the week? Check out jazz tonight at Brennan's Pub. The Nostatic Trio + will be performing from 8-10 p.m.

3. Both the Neighborhood Council of Westchester/Playa and the Del Rey Neighborhood Council executive boards meet this week. Check back here for coverage.

4. Patch is looking for bloggers. We recently rolled out a new blogging platform and are looking for local bloggers to write about whatever they want, whenever they want. If you're interested or want to learn more, send me an email: Paul.Chavez@patch.com

5. Did you know that you can follow Marina del Rey Patch, which also covers Del Rey and Playa del Rey, on Facebook and Twitter?
