SATURDAY  AUGUST 19, 2017  5:37 A.M.

We have partly cloudy skies early on this Saturday morning and temperatures range from the low 70s in the Clifton area to the mid 60s further inland, it is still muggy with dew points around 70, there is also some  patchy fog in some areas mostly inland.

A cold front will cross the area this morning with less humid air following the front, skies will become mostly sunny and it will be quite warm with temperatures approaching the 90 degree mark.

Mostly sunny and comfortably warm Sunday and Monday as high pressure builds into the area.

Tuesday will be the hottest day of the week ahead of a cold front that may touch off a shower at night.

The front will give us a continued chance of showers on Wednesday.

Much cooler and dry air for Thursday and Friday.
