OUR LOW TEMPERATURE TOMORROW MORNING, WE WILL HAVE CLEAR SKIES OVERNIGHT. HIGH TEMPERATURES TOMORROW WE\u2019LL HIT THE MID TO UPPER 70S AS WE HEAD INTO THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. AND IN PITTSBURGH, WE\u2019RE LOOKING AT A HIGH TEMPERATURE AROUND 77 DEGREES, 72 ON SATURDAY, 75 ON SUNDAY. EACH OF THOSE DAYS, MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES AND VERY COMFORTABLE CONDITIONS OUTSIDE. MONDAY NIGHT AS WELL. WE\u2019LL HAVE A COLD FRONT THAT\u2019S GOING TO SWING THROUGH THE AREA. IT\u2019S GOING TO BE A DRY, COLD FRONT. IT\u2019S NOT GOING TO HAVE MUCH TO DO WITH IT OR MUCH, MUCH. IT WILL BE A WEAK COLD FRONT COMING THROUGH IS WHAT I\u2019M TRYING TO SAY. SO WE\u2019LL NOT HAVE ANY RAIN SHOWERS WITH IT AND ONLY A FEW CLOUDS AS IT GOES FROM NORTH TO SOUTH ACROSS THE REGION. HIGH TEMPERATURE ON MONDAY IS 76 DEGREES. AND THEN WE GO INTO NEXT WEEK, WHERE WE\u2019LL HAVE TEMPERATURES NEAR THE MID 70S SUNSHINE. AND THEN WE FINALLY TAKE IT UP TO THE LOW 80S ON THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. THAT WILL BE OUR FIRST CHANCE OF EVEN SEEING SOME RAIN SHOWERS IN THE AREA. SO SATELLITE AND RADAR CLEAR SKIES OUT THERE RIGHT NOW AS YOU LOOK OUT TO THE WEST, YOU CAN SEE A LOT OF CLEAR SKIES. HIGH PRESSURE IS ACTUALLY CENTERED OVER THE GREAT LAKES, CLEARING THAT OUT AS WELL. AND AS WE GO INTO TOMORROW, IT\u2019S REALLY GOING TO BE A SIMILAR SCENE OUT THERE. FRIDAY WE\u2019LL HAVE MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES. WE\u2019LL TAKE IT OVERNIGHT INTO SATURDAY, CLEAR SKIES AND SUNSHINE THROUGH THE DAY ON SATURDAY WILL GO OVERNIGHT WITH CLEAR SKIES. AND AGAIN ON SUNDAY. WE\u2019LL FINISH OUT THE WEEKEND WITH CLEAR SKIES, LOTS OF SUNSHINE. IT WILL BE NICE. I WANT TO SHOW YOU THIS. WE DON\u2019T SEE THIS VERY OFTEN.
