Fair skies and a mild overnight as an area of high pressure keeps the Tri-State dry and quiet. Morning lows only fall to either side of 40 degrees as mild southwesterly winds keep the temps up. Friday starts with sunshine and mild mild afternoon highs that reach the mid to upper 50s. This is 10 or more degrees above average. However, increasing clouds roll into the area by night fall, but conditions stay dry right into Friday night.

The weekend is another story as wet weather hits for both days. We could see a few, isolated showers early on Saturday, but the majority of the wet weather hits late day into later Saturday night. We could get an inch or more by Sunday midday.

Additionally, winds will increase and gusts hit 30-35mph. Saturday will be mild with highs reaching the low 60s before the cold front shoves the highs back down into the mid 40s for Sunday afternoon.
