Your FOX 4 Storm Patrol Detailed Forecast

A late season cold front brings some nice changes just in time for the holiday weekend.  Saturday & Sunday will include mostly sunny skies, a bit windy on Saturday, breezy on Sunday and a nice drop in the humidity. On Memorial Day our dew points will still be in the lower 60s with a breeze under partly sunny skies.  Back to work on Tuesday and back to the humidity of late May.  Afternoon showers return to the forecast on Wednesday and daytime highs are running close to ninety degrees.
