Weekend Forecast: Go Outside!

Seasonable weather, that’s what’s in store, including the inevitable April showers and the temperature swings from chilly to steamy.

“Things improve as Friday wears on… things will dry out, and a few peeks of afternoon sun are possible,” says Bill Potter at Hudson Valley Weather. “ But the REAL winner is going to be Saturday… where the only question is, just how warm does it get.”

But don’t pack away the long-sleeves and fleece just yet, says AccuWeather.com.

According to Paul Pastelok, AccuWeather.com chief long-range meteorologist, “For weeks we have been forecasting another spell of chilly weather for the Northeast and much of the Midwest during the latter part of April.”

We’ll see some of that by Monday.
