Sensational Saturday, Sullen Sunday...
If the headline didn't make it obvious -- today's the weekend day to be outside. Sunday won't be a washout -- but just won't measure up to today's ideal mid-October conditions...
Today
Mostly sunny, pleasant. With high pressure building in from the west, we'll have beautiful sunshine, light winds and seasonable temperatures. Highs should be right around 65.
Overnight, it will be mostly clear until late when some high clouds will build in. Lows should be 40-45 (suburbs to city).

Increasing morning clouds, some afternoon light rain. An approaching frontal system will cause clouds to lower and thicken during the morning, with scattered light rain in the afternoon (40% chance). The clouds will hold down high temperatures, with highs 56-61.
