If you like your weather cold and dreary, stay in bed this weekend — sunny skies, followed by warmer temperatures are expected through Sunday in Lawrence, says Jennifer Schack, 6News meteorologist.

“It’s just a beautiful morning out there,” Schack said. “Get out there and enjoy all the blue skies.”
