STILL VERY WARM, BUT WETTER THIS WEEKEND

1. Front crosses region Friday, which means temps start to level off Thursday evening into the weekend. No place to go but down considering the tremendous warmth the past few months.

2. Highs still above normai in the 60s Friday, but near 60 over the weekend, with more cloud cover beginning friday night and then eventually some rain moving in late Saturday night.

3. Rain off and on from overnight saturday night into Sunday night. NYC and points to the south and east stand the best chance of rainfall greater than 1/2 inch.

4. Could see totals up to an inch of badly needed precip late Saturday into Sunday (especially south and east of I-95), as we're running well behind normal monthly rainfall for the month (the winter was also very dry).

5. Temps  will be in the low-mid 60s for Monday and Tuesday. Another surge of balmy summer-like temps looking likely Wednesday and Thursday, with highs near 70 inland/NYC, and solid 60s east of NYC.
