Much warmer weekend. Tumbling temps next week

Warmer weekend, then much cooler next week

I pretended to mow the lawn today. Nothing is really growing due to our dry stretch, but I went through the motions anyway.

Rain chances arrive Sunday night with the first of series of cold fronts. Perhaps the best chance of rain arrives Monday night into Tuesday with a stronger shot of cooler arriving.

Let's talk about the big swings ahead in the temperature department.

As we enter the first weekend of fall, temps will climb into the 80s this weekend. Saturday high temps will push the middle 80s. Dry and windy conditions will accompany the summer warmth. Sunday temps will also reach the lower to middle 80s.

The warmer it feels this weekend, the cooler it will feel next week. Temps are poised to drop well below average after a strong cold front Monday night. Highs will be in the 60s Wednesday with low temps in the 40s.

Below average temperatures are forecast through at least the first week of October.
