Planning for Tomorrow's Weather

I am going to visit the mountain tomorrow, so I need to check the forecast. Today, it is quite chilly, and the sky is mostly overcast. However, the weather app says things are going to change.

Tomorrow morning, it should clear up and be quite mild. We must be careful because it is still frosty early on. By the afternoon, it is going to be sunny and a good temperature for hiking. If the weather is still bad, we should stay home and watch a film instead. I hope there is no sudden downpour!
