DETAILED FORECAST
Patchy areas of fog will persist at times through sunrise, and a few showers also will be possible, StormCenter 7 Meteorologist Rich Wirdzek said.
It will be unseasonably mild with lows in the low to mid-40s. An early shower will be possible around sunrise Saturday, Wirdzek said.
Saturday: After a possibly wet start, it will be dry throughout the daylight hours and mild with highs in the low 50s. Scattered showers will arrive late in the day, with steadier rains expected later in the evening and at night. Temperatures will drop overnight into the low to mid-30s.
Sunday: Morning temperatures will start in the mid-30s and fall to the upper 20s by sunset. Rain will change over to wet snow, from west to east, after sunrise as arctic air arrives behind a storm system.
With a warm ground, the snow will take a bit to stick, but eventually grassy areas and elevated surfaces will take on some snow before it ends later in the morning. A few more flurries or snow showers will be possible later in the day as some lake effect moisture pushes our way from the northwest. Less than an inch of snow is expected.
Monday: Mostly sunny, breezy and cold conditions are in the forecast. Highs will be in the middle to upper 20s.
Tuesday: Another arctic front will bring some snow showers to the area early Tuesday. Small accumulations are expected at most, but with gusty winds and a much colder scenario, road conditions and reduced visibility may pose travel concerns Tuesday morning. Highs will be near 30 degrees.
Wednesday: Partly sunny, breezy and very cold conditions are expected with highs in the low 20s.
