Warm-Up Building...Rain Chances Weak

All systems a-go for the weekend warm-up...Plenty of sunshine expected this morning and afternoon should push our temperatures back into the 60s today.  The combination of sun, dry air and light winds should make for a great day!  More warmth and hazy sun for Saturday will push afternoon highs into the middle and upper 60s.  Rain chances return on Sunday, but chances look weak, so I don't anticipate a wash-out for Sunday or for tailgating at the LUC!
