Weekend Weather: Hot Friday, Hot Saturday. Sunday ... Meh.

As Wisconsinites, we go through so many weather extremes, it's easy to forget what the weather was like last year.

But rest assured, if this weekend's weather is anything like last year's, Friday and Saturday are going to be pretty good.

Last year, we were basking in the upper 80s, and this year we may eclipse even that.

Time to crank up the air, roll down the windows and live the American dream.
