Today we will have plenty of sunshine however temperatures will only reach the low 40s, winds will be a little lighter than what we experienced on Friday.

Dry weather will continue on Sunday but as an area of low pressure moves toward our area expect increasing cloudiness, Sunday’s highs will be a couple of degrees higher than today.

The storm system will bring precipitation into our area after midnight tomorrow night, the precipitation may start out as a mixture of snow and rain in the Clifton area but quickly change to rain before daybreak on Monday, inland will have a better chance of seeing accumulating snow and ice early Monday before changing to rain.  The precipitation may change back to snow before ending before daybreak on Tuesday.
