Another round of partly cloudy skies and cooler-than-average conditions Friday in the Sacramento region will give way to more sunshine and warmer weather for the Memorial Day weekend, according to the National Weather Service.

A 20 percent chance of sprinkles and temperatures topping out at 77 degrees are forecast Friday, with a Delta breeze from 7 to 10 mph. Temperatures tonight will drop to the low 50s under more cloudy skies.

The holiday weekend will bring sunshine and a high temperature near 80, forecasters said. The brighter, warmer weather will continue through the Monday holiday, with temperatures in the low 80s and mostly clear or partly cloudy skies.
