Weekend Starts Dry, But Finishes Wet 

Saturday will feel like a January day with a mixture of clouds and sunshine. High temperatures will only reach the middle to upper 30s. Expect a wind out of the northeast at 5 to 10 mph. Clouds will thicken late Saturday night into Sunday morning ahead of our next weather system. This system will bring us some showers as early as Sunday afternoon. Highs Sunday will reach the middle 40s. 

Warmer Weather Early Next Week

We'll see a few round of scattered showers early next week. Showers arrive Sunday afternoon and last through early Monday afternoon. Highs Monday will warm into the lower 50s. We'll see another system ahead with scattered showers and gusty winds Monday evening into Tuesday morning. Highs on Tuesday will be much milder in the lower 60s. There's even the possibility of some partial clearing Tuesday afternoon. 

Cooling Down Midweek

Temperatures will cool again toward the middle and end of next week. Highs on Wednesday are expected near 50 degrees, dropping into the 40s for Thursday and Friday.

Rain and Possible Snowflakes Late Next Week

Another storm system will bring additional chances for rain Thursday into Friday. There is the possibility of a few snowflakes at the tail end of the storm, but right now this doesn't appear to be a big snow maker for us. 

We will continue to monitor the forecast and provide updates as conditions evolve.
