Today will be quite mild despite plenty of cloudiness as high temperatures are expected to approach the 60 degree mark. My record temperature for the date is 59 set in 1990 and tied again just last year. A weak cold front will give us a slight chance of light showers later this afternoon and evening.
Sunday will remain mostly cloudy and only slightly cooler as weak high pressure builds into our area.
A winter storm is expected for Monday night into Tuesday morning. At this time rain will develop Monday night and then change to snow before ending around noon on Tuesday. At the present time 1-2″ of wet snow is likely in the Clifton area with much higher amounts to our north and west.
