Some strange weather ahead. On Friday we will have a disparate variation of twenty degrees. A low of 30 and a high of 53 degrees? Essentially wear thermals in the morning and a t-shirt around noon! Saturday will be “normal” in the sense that we will only have a difference of 8 degrees, but back we go to wacky weather on Sunday with another change of twenty degrees. Besides a passing morning shower on Sunday, there will be no precipitation.
