The clouds will come back in tonight and there is a slight risk of a shower overnight into early Friday with temperatures in the upper 40s. We have one more nice day before the rain and colder temperatures come back.

Saturday will start off with sprinkles and light showers that will pick up during the day. Most of the rain will fall over southwestern Connecticut during the day and eventually taper off early Sunday. Temperatures will suffer, and will stay in the upper 40s to near 50 degrees.

By Sunday, most of the rain will have passed and the sky will gradually clear up a bit later in the day. Temperatures will rise into the upper 50s on Sunday and then into the lower 60s on Monday.

Looking ahead to next week, there will be more rain heading our way. This is a good thing because our local area is seeing abnormally dry conditions with just a touch of drought for southwestern Fairfield County. There is a deficit with the rain for the month of April, but with more rain on the way, there is a chance we can start to catch up.

Stay tuned to News 12 Connecticut for forecast updates on the weekend rain chances.
