Fall is here.<\/p>\n

No, really, fall is here, South Florida.<\/p>\n

Cool temperatures are on the way, according to the National Weather Service in Miami. We\u2019re talking low-70s in Miami-Dade and Broward this weekend \u2014 just in time for home football games for the Hurricanes on Saturday and the Dolphins on Sunday.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re raising your eyebrow, we get it. We had a summer of record heat baking us into September. We had weeks of near daily storms, including record rainfall<\/a> of nearly 21 inches for Fort Lauderdale.<\/p>\n

Fall technically started a few days ago, but this weekend will feel like it \u2014 lower rainfall chances, lower humidity and lower temperatures.<\/p>\n

No wonder CBS News Miami meteorologist Lissette Gonzalez seemed giddy on her Instagram post Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cAre you ready for a taste of fall? I know I am,\u201d Gonzalez beamed. She was referring to a front on the way ushering drier air into South Florida, and reducing the wet blanket of humidity that\u2019s covered us for months.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s going to feel a lot more comfortable as we head into the weekend … so make those plans to get outside, especially during the morning hours. It\u2019s going to feel oh so nice,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Highs will still be warm in the mid to upper-80s \u2014 88 on Friday and 87 on Saturday and Sunday, according to the National Weather Service, but only with a 30% chance of showers on Saturday and under 15% on Sunday.<\/p>\n

\u201cTake advantage because as we head into next week, rain chances will be rising,\u201d Gonzalez said.<\/p>\n

The weather service puts rain and thunderstorm chances back up to 70% Tuesday for the Miami and Fort Lauderdale area, especially after 2 p.m. And Wednesday afternoon will stay unsettled at 75%, with highs in the mid-80s and lows in the upper-70s.<\/p>\n

Kickoff forecast \"Miami Miami Dolphins quarterback Malik Willis will make his home-crowd debut on Sunday at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens. Al Diaz adiaz@miamiherald.com <\/p>\n

What kind of weather will the crowds feel at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens?<\/p>\n

It\u2019ll be comfortable where the Canes host the Central Michigan Chippewas<\/a> at 6:30 p.m. Saturday and the Dolphins play their first home game<\/a> of the season against the Kansas City Chiefs at 1 p.m. Sunday.<\/p>\n

Canes kickoff temperature Saturday is 80 degrees; rain chances at 30% and dropping to under 10% around halftime and the third quarter, according to the weather service\u2019s Forecast Points<\/a> page.Dolphins kickoff temperature Sunday is 83; rain chances under 10% and hovering just above 10% after 2 p.m.Traveling around Florida?<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re taking a weekend trip to Orlando or Central Florida, Saturday and Sunday brings highs around 84 and lows of 65.<\/p>\n

Tampa area your destination? Expect 87 down to 67.<\/p>\n

University of Florida in Gainesville in your game plan? How\u2019s 84 high and 60 low on Saturday feel?<\/p>\n
