I am still trying to work out exactly how cold Friday morning will be, as it looks like we should expect snow showers through most of the day. Temperatures aren't lining up though with snow chances right now, so I will continue to fine-tune that part of the forecast.

At this point, we likely will see temperatures falling through Friday morning.

Looking at the weekend, Saturday still is looking dry but I am going to continue with a small drizzle/snow chance for Sunday morning.
