Weekend Weather Overview
The cold front will arrive late Friday, bringing gusty winds and a chance of showers. By Saturday, daytime highs will struggle to reach the low teens Celsius, a drop of nearly 10 degrees from earlier in the week. Mother's Day itself will see partly sunny skies but remain cool, with highs near 12°C. Overnight lows could dip to near freezing in outlying areas.
What to Expect
- Friday: Increasing clouds, chance of afternoon showers, high near 18°C.
- Saturday: Cloudy with isolated showers, windy, high near 12°C.

Residents planning outdoor Mother's Day activities should dress warmly and keep an umbrella handy. The cooldown is expected to persist into early next week before a gradual warming trend returns.
