PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - As Ron has been saying all morning, rain is in the forecast for this weekend, but that shouldn't ruin your weekend.

We begin in Butler County for the annual BookFest.
The Butler Fairgrounds will be filled with more than 100,000 books, CDs, video games, audiobooks, and vinyl records.
