The holiday weekend starts of with sunny skies and mid-60s temps. A cold front Saturday brings rain, and much cooler temps by Easter Sunday only in the low-50s. This cooler trend will continue into Monday as clouds increase ahead of the next storm system. Temps the second half of the weekend will be 8-10ºF below normal, a big contrast from this week!

Rest of today (Good Friday, Passover) – sunny with high temperatures in the mid-60s. This will be the best day of the weekend. Overnight lows in the low-50s with clouds building.

Weather Prediction Center surface forecast for Saturday at 8 AM. A cold front will be approaching during the day.

Saturday – cloudy with rain showers developing later in the day, with high temperatures in the low-60s. Temperatures will fall into the low-40s after a cold front passes through. Shower activity should taper off overnight.

Sunday (Easter) – mostly sunny but much cooler, with high temperatures only hitting the low-50s. This is 8-10ºF below normal for this time of year. Overnight lows dropping back into the low-40s.

The weekend ahead brings some of the warmest temperatures yet for the spring season as a summer-like weather pattern takes shape. The warm up will be short-lived, by Tuesday temperatures will be taking a dip below normal in the upper-50s.

Rest of today – mild, partly cloudy, with high temperatures in the mid-60s.

Saturday – increasing clouds, temperatures cooler in the low-60s.

Sunday (Easter) – very warm, high temperatures in the low-80s. Fog early, sunny otherwise, but with a chance for strong thunderstorms late in the day. A warm front will push through overnight Saturday, and a Bermuda high will take hold. This will lead to very warm air surging from the southwest and the Gulf of Mexico into this region.

Monday – not quite as warm as Sunday, but still quite nice with high temperatures in low-70s and mostly sunny skies.

Easter weekend will be bookended by wet weather, but the weekend days themselves should be dry with temperatures around average for this time of year.

Rest of today – an earlier round of showers passed through earlier this morning. Another round of showers and scattered thunderstorms will pass through the region along with a cold front in the afternoon hours. It appears that there will be a good chance for rain between the hours of 12PM-6PM, after which skies should gradually clear.
