Weekend Forecast: Welcome to Fall!

Fall officially begins Saturday morning at 9:49 am and boy-oh-boy are temperatures going to reflect that this weekend.

A secondary cold front will move through early Saturday morning ushering in a much more cooler and drier air mass.  As this front comes through scattered showers will remain possible through the first half of Saturday before cloud cover breaks up and skies begin to clear during the evening.  Temperatures will remain cool with a breezy northwest wind.  Highs will reach the upper 50s to near 60°.  With the clearing skies likely overnight temperatures will tumble into the 30s by sunrise Sunday.  Temperatures a few thousand feet above the surface will drop below freezing and that cold air will translate down to the surface.  Frost will also be likely early Sunday morning before high pressure moves during the afternoon.  A few clouds will build by the afternoon Sunday with temperatures near 60°.  A return of the 70s will be in the works for next week.
