Robin Reed in the SkyTracker7 Forecast
Center. The sunny weather from the
last few days is about to end. An upper
level area of low pressure will come
out of the mid Mississippi River Valley
over the weekend, spilling more clouds
into our region, as well as occasional
showers and possible thunderstorms.
Tonight, expect clear to partly cloudy
skies with mild temperatures near 50.
Winds will be light. Look for a blend


of sunshine and clouds to begin your
Saturday, followed by increasing clouds
in the afternoon. Rain showers are
looking possible by mid afternoon.
Highs are forecast in the mid 70s.
Saturday night's lows again fall to
around 50 with scattered showers. The
unsettled weather continues into Sunday
with highs not as warm in the mid 60s.
Monday carries a 40% shower chance.
Highs in the mid to upper 60s. With any
luck, we'll see drier weather by next
