It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like — Spring? — In Fairfield

FAIRFIELD COUNTY, Conn. -- It may not feel like winter yet in Fairfield County — but then, it’s not supposed to. Fall carries on until Dec. 21. Enjoy the balmy pre-winter temperatures this weekend and the bright sun, too — we all know it’s not going to last much longer. But get outside during the day; temperatures show their chill factors at night.

The temperature was mild enough for shorts recently at Beekman Country Club in Hopewell Junction, N.Y. Fairfield County will enjoy mild temperatures this weekend.

If you're the type who decorates outside or cuts down a Christmas tree -- or always wanted to try it -- THIS is the weekend. Take Friday and Saturday to prepare and head to the tree farm early Sunday, predicted to be warmer than average and sunny.

The rest of Friday afternoon is nothing but lots of sun, with a high near 48, with west winds of 6 to 8 mph. The chill comes at night, with a low around 29.
There will be even more sun Saturday, with a high near 50. Wind chill will be between 30 and 40 early in the day. Saturday night will be mostly clear, with a low around 29.
Get out the sunscreen on Sunday -- it’s going up to 55 degrees, with sunny skies. At night, the low will be 34.
The Monday morning commute will be pleasant, with mostly sunny skies and a high near 51. If you work at home, it’s a good day to open the window.
