Mother's Day Mix: Poughkeepsie's Weekend Weather

POUGHKEEPSIE, NY — Cooler and unsettled weather may disrupt many plans Saturday and Sunday across the Hudson Valley. But don't despair. By midday Sunday, the storm front will be heading out and things may clear up.

"By Mother’s Day, the front will have sunk far enough south that dry, nice weather will expand south at least into northern Pennsylvania, and perhaps as far south as New York City later in the day," said AccuWeather Meteorologist Bill Deger.
