This weekend will be a giant buzzkill compared to this past week’s summer-like highs.
We’re likely not getting out of the 50s on Saturday and Sunday and the sunny skies we’ve enjoyed will probably be a thing of the past as rain moves in for the weekend.
The chance of rain increases as we move through the weekend.
Silver lining in those clouds … a nice warm-up is in store for next week.
