Our area has mostly clear skies early in this Friday morning and temperatures are a little higher than the last few mornings with readings ranging from the upper 60s in the Clifton area to the low 60s further inland where there are  pockets of dense fog, winds are mainly calm.

Today we will have a mix of clouds and sun as a weak front moves through the area, it will be seasonably warm and humid.

The latest computer models have a low pressure forming along the front causing rain in our area after midnight and continue into the day on Saturday.  It now appears that the heaviest rain will be south of our area, with lighter amounts to our north.   It will be windy during the day with temperatures mainly staying in the 70s.

High pressure will build into the area on Sunday giving us a very pleasant day with low humidity, plenty of sunshine and comfortable temperatures.
