Temperatures didn’t get out of the 30s on Friday, and the high on Saturday is expected to be in the low 40s.

The chance of rain overnight Friday into Saturday is 70 percent, with lows dropping to around freezing.

Partly cloudy weather returns Saturday night, with lows also expected around freezing.

For Sunday, sunny skies are in the forecast, with highs in the mid 50s.

Warmer weather and more rain will greet the start of next week.
