Fall temperatures arrive Friday, cool weekend ahead

Fall temperatures are finally here! FOX 5's Mike Thomas has the forecast.

Fall temperatures are finally here! FOX 5's Sue Palka says cooler temperatures mean we're ready to sack summer which means Friday night football -- or anything else you're doing outside after sunset -- may require a jacket!

Overnight, a stronger push of refreshing air powered through the area to bring more sunshine, a gusty breeze from the north and afternoon temperatures that should max out in the lower to mid-70s in the D.C. region on Friday.

Downright chilly temperatures heading into Saturday morning will be in the 40s in the suburbs leading to a sun-filled and gorgeous autumn day in the 60s. Enjoy the season change! We sure waited long enough!
