Another band of showers will impact the region overnight and into Friday morning. Precipitation will clear during the morning and force warm air into the area.

FOX 29's Sue Serio says to brace for a rare March heat wave on Friday, with temperatures slated to sit in the 70s in most areas, and top out at 81 in the city.

The roller coaster of temperatures will continue on Saturday as conditions return to more seasonable levels. Saturday will be breezy and cool with a high of 53, and Sunday will stuggle to reach into the 50s.
