It's a tale of two days this weekend.

Rain returns Sunday, could impact Eagles game

Sunday is a different story. Clouds are going to gather once again, with rain likely, especially later in the day.  

For the Eagles game, it looks like rain, but not too much wind, so if you're heading to the stadium, you might want to pack a raincoat or poncho.

Expect rain during Sunday's Eagles game.

So, in a nutshell, Saturday is your best bet for any outdoor plans. Enjoy the mild weather while it lasts!
