Good morning!

Light rain is falling over the area early on this Friday morning and temperatures range from the low 40s in Clifton down to the low 30s further inland, winds are light.

The light rain will end by 10 a.m. and temperatures will briefly rise into the 50s as a warm front passes to our north. A cold front will pass through this afternoon and temperatures will fall back into the 40s by sunset. Much colder and windy tonight with lows falling to around 20 by Saturday morning.

A dry weekend can be expected with seasonably cold temperature, winds will be gusty Saturday morning but diminish in the afternoon. Winds will be light on Sunday.

A weak disturbance may touch off a little light snow late Sunday night into early Monday morning, possible accumulations would only be a dusting to maybe an inch.

A stronger disturbance will likely give our area more significant precipitation Tuesday into Wednesday morning, it appears that this storm will cause snow changing to sleet and rain, we may pick up a couple of inches of snow before the changeover.

Dry weather Wednesday afternoon through Thursday with near seasonable temperatures.
