Tomorrows high only 25. The wind chill around 10. Sunday less wind, loads of sunshine the more comfortable of the two days with a high of 30 degrees. Winter is back and staying for the weekend. 36 degrees tomorrow. The coldest day since february 10th. Wind chills stuck in the 20s. On sunday it will feel a lot better with less wind, temperatures up a little bit. 39 degrees. But look at this recovery by monday, up to 52 degrees. We bump it up to 66 on tuesday with the possibility of a few showers. Wednesday it remains on the mild side, 60 degrees but after wednesday, temperatures will start stepping down again.
