The weather will be marked by the potential for record warm temperatures with afternoon highs 20 to 25 degrees above normal each day.
But a cold front will then move through, bringing temperatures down for the start of the new work week.
Before the cold front arrives late Sunday night, Jan. 12, gusty winds could blow around unsecured objects to start the day.
In addition, tree limbs could be blown down and a few power outages may result, the National Weather Service said in issuing a Wind Advisory for the area from 4 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sunday, warning of gusts up to 50 miles per hour.
The strongest winds are likely to be right around daybreak through mid-morning Sunday.
Here's what to expect for the next five days:
Saturday, Jan. 11: After a partly sunny start to the day, clouds will increase in the afternoon and there will be a chance for showers in the evening and overnight. Saturday's high temperature should topple the 60-degree mark in most parts of the region.
Wind strength will pick up in the evening, between 11 to 14 miles per hour, with gusts as high as 25 mph. The overnight low temperature will hold steady in the mid to upper 50s.
Sunday, Jan. 12: Morning showers are likely and there could be some scattered thunderstorms, mainly before 9 a.m. Winds will be out of the southwest between 20 to 25 mph with the gusts up to 50 mph expected.
After a cloudy morning, there will be gradual clearing in the afternoon as the high temperature hits the low to mid 60s. There will be a drop in temperatures overnight as the cold front arrives, with the low in the upper 30s.
Monday, Jan. 13: Partly sunny with a high temperature in the mid 40s. It will be partly cloudy overnight with the low temperature just above the freezing mark.
Tuesday, Jan. 14: Partly sunny with the high temperature in the low 40s. There's a chance for precipitation during the evening and overnight, which should be mainly rain as the low temperature is not expected to fall below the mid 30s.
Wednesday, Jan. 15: Mostly sunny with the high temperature in the mid 40s. Clouds will increase in the afternoon and there will be a chance for showers through the evening.
