7 Day Forecast
Makes me:

Mostly cloudy skies and warmer with some sprinkles or spotty light rain possible. Highs in the mid 50s-60. We should see grey skies today along with a slight chance for some sprinkles or light rain. The rain should be so light and brief that it won't likely be all that measurable. If we tend to see a full overcast the entire day, high temperatures may be reduced by a few degrees. We are expecting brighter skies and warmer weather for Saturday!

Question: I park my car outside in the elements at nights. Is there any way to forecast if I'll need to scrape frost off of my windows in the morning? I'd like to be able to know so I can set aside time in my morning routine to scrape if needed, instead of just being suprised when I go outside in the mornings. Thanks!
