After Some Fall Like Weather, Summer Set To Return For Travers Weekend In Saratoga

When I got in my car to drive home from the radio station last night, the temperature on my dashboard slapped me in the face: 57 degrees!

We usually get our first taste of cooler autumn weather in August, but it is usually in the form of a chilly morning followed by a perfect sunny, August day in the high 70s to low 80s! But this week has felt like a way too early arrival of later September and early October weather. But have no fear, it's not time yet for cider donuts and pumpkin-flavored everything, as summer will return for one of the biggest weekends of the season.

Summer Temps To Return To The Capital Region

It's Travers weekend in Saratoga Springs, which means racing fans will descend on the Spa City for the biggest race of the season. The Capital Region overall will be bustling for our last summer weekend before Labor Day, and Mother Nature is set to warm things back up, including a great looking day for the Travers on Saturday:

According ot the News Channel 13 First Warning Forecast, we can expect the following over the next few days:

• Thursday: Morning clouds followed by afternoon sun - High 75
