Sunday will be a stark contrast to the pleasant conditions of the first half of the weekend, with temperatures dropping by approximately 20 degrees.
Early risers will experience cooler temperatures compared to Saturday.
Rain is expected, primarily after 10 a.m., with a steady temperature of around 53 degrees.
National Weather Service meteorologist said a northeast wind of around 8 mph is anticipated, and there is a 90% chance of precipitation. Rainfall amounts are expected to range between a tenth and a quarter of an inch.

Patchy fog is expected before midnight, followed by overcast skies. A north wind of 5 to 8 mph is forecasted, with a 70% chance of precipitation.
