this is when high pressure builds right over us. the winds relax. a slice of nice with a good amount of sunshine and mild air with a high of 60 degrees and by thursday night, we have some rain on the way and that will help to bring in much cooler air. the six to 10-day outlook, this is basically from saturday through next wednesday shows that there's going to be a ridge of high pressure off to the west and that means the greatest temperatures above normal will be on the west coast. here, though, we're going to have this trough and that means temperatures will be trending below normal so the beginning of april is going to be a lot different from march when temperatures were generally well above normal. association the exclusive accuweather 7-day forecast, tomorrow gusty winds, loads of sunshine but a lot cooler than today. you'll want a jacket tomorrow with a high of 56 degrees. on wednesday the winds relax, mostly sunny and a little bit warmer. i think the pick of the week with a high of 60. you like things warm? what was bump it up to 72 degrees on thursday. sunshine the first half of the

day but then as a cold front approaches some rain developing late in the day and thursday night and then friday is kind of the opposite. we get the rain in the morning, some sunshine by the afternoon, still mild with a high of 68 degrees but look at what happens as we head through the weekend. cooler air arriving on saturday. mixture of clouds and sunshine. perhaps a stray sprinkle. 57 degrees and sunday bundle up. brisk and chilly, 49 degrees. could have a shower or even a wet snowflake around on sunday believe it or not. but the cold air doesn't last that long. by monday partly sunny and a little bit milder with a high of 53 degrees. so, one day with temperatures. >> don't you know when enough is enough. >> one day. you can handle it, jim, one day. >> good to hear. >> flies to see you. >> music filled the holings of the college of ne -- halls of te college of new jersey today. >> ♪ 100 coral students practiced this afternoon in ewing along with japanese
