After the frosty morning, Saturday will be sunny but cooler with highs near 52 degrees. It will be cloudy in the evening, then partly cloudy overnight temperatures dropping to around 37 degrees.

Skies will be mostly cloudy for Mother’s Day, with rain later in the afternoon. Highs will reach near 60 degrees. There is a chance for showers Sunday night, but skies otherwise will be mostly cloudy with lows in the upper 30s.
