Good Morning! It’s unusually cool Saturday morning. Temperatures at Dawn will be in the mid to upper 40’s. But, after the morning chill fades, we have a nice Saturday warm-up ahead. It should be a great Mother’s Day weekend. Lots of sunshine and a big warm-up on Sunday. Perfect for afternoon cook-outs.
