A dry northwesterly flow will prevail across the area this weekend for mostly sunny and mild days with clear cool nights.

Highs today are forecast to reach the upper 50s to lower 60s around the lake with west winds 10 to 20 mph in the afternoon.

Lows tonight will be rather chilly with readings in the mid to upper 20s under clear skies and light winds.

Look for temperatures to rise into the mid to upper 60s Saturday and Sunday as higher pressure aloft builds into the area.

Lows are expected to vary from the mid 20s to lower 30s around the lake or near the seasonal normal for this time of year.

Mothers will enjoy their day on Sunday except for the afternoon breezes kicking up from the southwest at 15 to 25 mph in the afternoon. Have a great weekend.
