The good news for parade-goers is the rain isn’t forecasted to come until Friday afternoon, long after the conclusion of the parade led by Kevin Costner.

So if you are heading to the grounds for Day One…maybe stay close to some shelter.

Aside from some rain in the forecast Saturday, the rest of the weekend looks pretty good with temperatures in the 20s.

And it looks really positive heading into the week with temperatures forecasted in the 30s.
