Chief Meteorologist Patrick Rockey’s First Warning Forecast
For many folks, fall is their favorite season of the year. And the last few days are a good example of why. We've enjoyed sunny, dry weather with afternoon highs in the 70s.
But everything you like about the season is going to be changing over the next few days, as a powerful cold front moves through.
We'll start your Thursday with mostly cloudy skies thanks to a separate cold front draped across the region. But those clouds should clear out by the afternoon, leaving us with mostly sunny skies and high temperatures in the mid-to-upper 70s.
Our second cold front arrives on Saturday. It looks like we'll start the day with dry weather, with increasing rain chances as we head into the afternoon and evening.
The bulk of the rain should be gone by Sunday. But a few afternoon showers are possible.
Sunday will be sharply cooler and breezy behind that second cold front. We expect highs in the mid 60s.
And the cooler air will really take hold for the work week, with highs in the low-to-mid 60s, which is well below normal.
