WHAT TO KNOW

A developing dip in the upper-level winds will allow some more clouds to collect for Saturday and also drag the temperatures back down into the mid- and upper 60s. It will be a brief cooldown. A very large ridge of warmth in the Midwest will advance in New Jersey's direction for the end of the weekend into next week.
