Skies are cloudy early on this Tuesday morning and there is a little light rain or drizzle falling in parts of the area, temperatures are nearly 15 degrees warmer than this time yesterday with readings ranging from around 40 in the Clifton area to some low 30s further inland, winds are mostly calm.
A frontal system moving into the area will cause periods of light rain mostly this morning, there may be a break in the precipitation this afternoon but more showers are likely tonight as a cold front crosses the area, temperatures will be mild with highs well up into the 50s.
Tomorrow will be dry, breezy and continued quite mild.
Thursday will continue to be dry and only slightly cooler ahead of another cold front that will come through at night.
Colder air will push down from Canada for Friday through the weekend with a couple of snow chances, one on Friday morning that may give us a couple of inches and another low pressure system on Sunday however this storm may stay to our south and not give us any snow. It will be unseasonably cold through this period but not as frigid as what we experienced last weekend.
