FORECAST

FEW SHOWERS TUESDAY NIGHT, WEDNESDAY

A weak system will help to generate more clouds on Tuesday and eventually a few showers. Light rain is possible Tuesday night and into the first half of the day on Wednesday. Don’t expect much rain, but the clouds will keep temperatures in the low to mid 60s.

WEEKEND FORECAST

By now, you’ve probably seen quite a bit on social media about the potential for wintry weather this weekend. There are still questions about timing, how much and type of precipitation we may see, and any corresponding impacts.

That said, our confidence is increasing that we will see cold weather coinciding with precipitation chances. Should this occur, freezing rain would be possible Saturday. However, the future placement of an upper-level low pressure system is crucial for forecasting any impacts from icy weather. This will remain unknown for a couple more days. We encourage you to check back often for updates.
