Newton's Weekend Forecast: Summer Bummer

NEWTON, MA - Despite the strong start to the week, the weather will remain ugly as we head into the weekend.

The short of it is this: fog, clouds and possible rain. That's right - the four most horrifying words in the English language (at least during beach season).

According to the National Weather Service, the rain will likely hold off until Sunday, but we'll still have to contend with the drear tonight and for most of Saturday. However, there will be some sunny spots, so take advantage of them when you can.

Here's a look at this weekend's forecast from the National Weather Service:

• Friday night: Patchy fog after 2 a.m., mostly cloudy, with a low around 59.

• Saturday: Patchy fog before 8 a.m., partly sunny, with a high near 81.

• Saturday night: Mostly cloudy, with a low around 60.

• Sunday: Rain likely, with thunderstorms possible after 3 p.m. Otherwise, cloudy with a high near 70.
