Weekend Weather: Mostly Sunny, Calm Winds

High temperatures are supposed to hover near 40 degrees all weekend in Oakland Township.

Even though the groundhog Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow on Thursday, predicting six more weeks of winter, we're not so sure.

This weekend will be full of sunny skies, and no precipitation is in the forecast until Thursday, according to the National Weather Service.

Day-by-day forecast for the weekend

Friday: The commute to work might take a little longer Friday morning because drivers will be struggling to see through the patchy fog that is forecasted to stick around until about 10 a.m. After the fog lifts, partly sunny skies are in the forecast with a high of 42 degrees during the day and low of 25 degrees at night. Winds will be light all day at 6 mph.
