The weekend kicks off with mostly sunny skies across Central Ohio. Clear conditions are expected to last through the morning and the very first part of the afternoon. Gradually a few clouds will move in as temperatures top off around 60 degrees.

(WJW) — A chilly morning in the 30s and 40s. But Saturday will be the best of the weekend! The weather looks great for all the outdoor fall activities and events. Temperatures will be cool, but above average, in the upper 50s. Showers move in overnight and Sunday morning with breezy conditions.

Another chance of rain will arrive this weekend, although most of the daytime hours of Saturday and Sunday will likely be rain-free. Showers arrive Saturday evening into Saturday night, and then likely taper off before daybreak Sunday.

The Chicago area can expect to see above-average temperatures quite a bit in the near future, with a growing chance of showers Saturday evening.

Today will be cloudy with showers expected in the evening. Another round of showers will hit the area Sunday morning before clearing out.
