Weekend weather forecast

The heavy rains are ending from west to east this morning and it will be a nice fall weekend with temps near 60 degrees and plenty of sunshine.

"High pressure builds overhead tonight. With clear skies and light winds temperatures will be falling to the mid 30s across a large portion of the region, and areas of frost will be likely. A frost

"Sunday will be warmer as the high moves to the north and winds shift around to the south. Sunshine will be filtered through high thin cloudiness. Highs will be in the lower to mid 60s."
