Chief Meteorologist Patrick Rockey’s First Warning Forecast

You're going to wake up to a sloppy mess on Saturday morning, with some heavy downpours and gusty winds. But that is NOT a sign of things to come for the entire weekend.

Rain will spread across the region on Friday evening and will become heavier and more widespread after midnight.
We expect the heaviest rain to roll through within a few hours of sunrise on Saturday with southeast winds 15 to 25 mph.

But most of the rain should be gone by lunchtime. And we could even see some sunshine break through the clouds in the afternoon. We're looking at high temperatures in the mid 60s.

Sunday will be a few degrees cooler with a little more sunshine. But, all in all, most of the weekend is looking dry and comfortable.

But more soggy weather returns for the work week. A slow-moving cold front will bring us daily rain chances beginning late Tuesday. We're expecting the heaviest rain on Wednesday.
