"Spring is often a tug-of-war between winter and summer, but many might think snow is usually a thing of the past by the middle of April in much of the Northeast," according to AccuWeather.com. "However, that is often not the case as evidenced by the upcoming weather pattern, which will follow several days of warm weather that brought the return of 70-degree temperatures for some."

Saturday, April 16 will be mostly cloudy with a chance for afternoon showers and a high temperature in the low 60s, according to the National Weather Service.
