A weatherman is giving the weekend forecast on the TV evening news:
...It's still raining here in Chicago, and it looks like that rain is going to continue through the weekend. It'll be cloudy tomorrow with scattered showers, and the outlook for Sunday--more rain and colder. The predicted high for tomorrow is forty-five degrees Fahrenheit, and the temperature is expected to dip to the freezing point tomorrow night with thirty-two degrees. I'm afraid colder weather is on its way!
