Quiet weather will settle into the area as the area of low pressure moves out of the Great Lakes and into Southern Ontario, simultaneously, high pressure will begin to settle in from the west. For the rest of this evening, temperatures will begin to drop with winds coming in from the NW ushering much cooler and drier air.
The start of the day on Friday will be a tad chilly with clear skies, temperatures rebound back to around 50 degrees in the afternoon with an increase in cloud coverage. Temperatures on Friday night will drop down to around the freezing mark, would not be surprised if most locations around the area will wake up to some morning frost on Saturday.
