Sunday's Weather Forecast

From a late dose of September-like temperatures Friday to December-like temperatures on Sunday and Monday, it will REALLY feel like winter with temperatures only in the 40s.
Otherwise, generally uneventful weather for the next few days with eventual moderation by mid week.

Saturday's Weather Forecast 11/2/13

Friday sure was an oddball day weather-wise, huh? We awoke to torrential rains and wind. Ended mild in the upper 60s and low 70s with sunshine. The cold front is actually already through, so where's the cold? Well, sometimes cold gets held up "in atmospheric traffic," so to speak. The traffic jam is breaking down, however, and Saturday will be notably cooler with temperatures only in the low to mid 60s. 

But if you think that's cool, wait 'til Sunday and Monday. Temperatures those two days will be hard pressed to get out of the 40s! What a roller-coaster. But true to form for this odd season so far, back to the 60s mid next week before, you guessed it, another cool down later next week. *sigh* What an autumn!
