It's hard to imagine anyone working outside in today's scorching heat, but that's exactly how kids from the Summer Youth Employment Program spent their morning.

Over 70 youngsters from the program showed up at Seton Falls Park on Tuesday to help clean up the trails.

Park officials say the trails in the park were overgrown with weeds and shrubs.

The kids were joined by Councilman Andy King, the Natural Resource Group and other community members.

King says he was impressed by the children's dedication to the cleanup effort.

The cleanup lasted approximately two hours.

That address on your screen right now. All right, we're bringing hope back now for another check of that hyper local forecast. I've heard there's a warm up in our future hopes will be climbing into the mid to upper fifties this weekend. So that's something that we can look forward to. So we are also watching the some wet weather that's moving into our area right now. Here is the current timeline. So we're seeing some steady rain right now through at least 8 p.m. So watch for some puddles roads on area roadways and from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. just expect the roads to still remain wet, but the rain will be coming to an end. Can't rule out some drizzle some mist through at least 10 after 10 pm, cloudy and chilly with areas of fog developing into tomorrow morning. So taking a look at your weekend forecast, it looks like Saturday is going to be your best bet to really go out there and enjoy the conditions highs near 58. This will probably be the last time that we see temperatures this mild for the rest of the year, limited sunshine. So we're not going to see that bright beautiful sky but still an overall really decent day, Sunday looking more so like a washout, temperatures will be in a low to mid fifties and steady rain. Expect rounds of showers throughout the day and we will be catching brief breaks at times. So here's the timeline. So again, the rain will be moving out of here this evening. Tomorrow morning, we'll be waking up to some fog, reducing visibility. So, if you're one of those early risers, give yourself a few extra minutes and us, your low beam headlights, the clouds will take over by the afternoon and temperatures will be climbing once again to the mid to upper fifties. But we're not seeing the sunshine muted sunshine all day long with some showers to follow Saturday night into early Sunday morning. We're seeing some of that rain and even some moderate to heavy rainfall as we get into the day on our Sunday. Now, in terms of the rest of the weekend, even into early next week, temperatures will be tumbling back into the forties. All right.
