PHOTOGRAPHY EDITOR -- The start of the weekend brings cloudy skies and a 50 percent chance of rain. Thankfully, the high humidity over the next few days will be offset by a slightly cooler weekend than normal. By the time rush starts on Saturday, the skies should be clear and the weather beautiful - just in time for that steak and lobster dinner. For those of you who are hot and sweaty right now, things should cool off a lot in the near future. Those of you who left your fur coats back in California are going to be really sorry when it starts to snow. Don’t say that I didn’t tell you so.

Today: Partly cloudy with scattered showers early in the morning, clearing in the afternoon. The high of 75 F and light winds make today an excellent day for ultimate frisbee, if the rain holds off.

Tonight: Clear, approaching a low of 59 F. A good time to practice your night photography in Boston.

Saturday: Sunny and warm; the perfect day for the start of the last MIT Freshman Rush ever. Expect a high of 74 F at Killian Kickoff.
