Discussion:
The weather will remain fairly mundane as we head into the weekend despite the chance for light showers on Saturday. Tomorrow will start out in the upper 30’s so dust off the coat if you already haven’t since nighttime and morning temperatures will remain chilly throughout the weekend. The high tomorrow will reach the mid 60’s under sunny skies with clouds increasing into the evening hours. This will help to moderate the low somewhat and keep it in the mid 40’s. This is in association with a very weak and dissipating cold front projected to slide through the area midday Saturday. Due to the near absence of moisture, the greatest guarantee is overcast skies with light to moderate showers possible. Accumulations under .10 of an inch are expected in the morning hours after daybreak before dissipating around noon.

Clouds will hang around into the evening before dissipating overnight. Sunday will once again begin on a cold note, but will be absolutely beautiful under sunny skies with a high in the mid 60’s so get out and enjoy the great fall weather!
