Not the greatest weekend forecast for certain -- what's with that arctic front? At least it’s not snow.

We’ll see rain chances both Friday and Saturday, and the good news is it’s dry on Sunday -- but -- it’s also a lot colder on Sunday and Monday.

"The first half of Saturday looks very nice, with a good deal of sunshine," says Bill Potter of Hudson Valley Weather. "But an arctic front moves toward our area during the afternoon, and that will bring with it the threat of showers and thunderstorms for the 2nd half of the day.

Sunday evening, temps could dip close to 40 degrees for parts of the Hudson Valley.
