High pressure over the North Country today will give way to an occluded low pressure system tracking out of the Great Lakes tonight with gusty southerly winds developing this afternoon and continuing tonight, according to the National Weather Service (NWS).

The high today will be 70 with light winds, NWS says.

Light rainfall spreads into the region late tonight into early Saturday morning, then shifts eastward throughout the day, forecasters say.

Seasonable temperatures and drier weather will follow on Sunday but another round of showers will be possible Sunday night, the service says.

High pressure will then settle into the region through the first half of the upcoming week bringing warmer and drier conditions to the region, NWS says.
