Regardless of where you're at on the mercury scale, we'll all get plenty of sunshine before clouds roll in Friday night.

After that, it will really start to feel like the start of meteorological spring, which is from March 1 to the end of May.

While it'll start a little rainy, Sunday will save the weekend, with partly sunny skies and high temperatures in the low 60s.
