Skies are clear early this Saturday morning and we have the coldest readings of the season as temperatures have fallen to the mid 20s in the Clifton area to around 20 further inland, winds are light.

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.

Even colder weather is expected Tuesday and Wednesday with highs only reaching the 30s and overnight lows near 20 in the Clifton area to many teens inland.  Winds will be brisk on Tuesday but lighter on Wednesday. Skies will be mostly clear.

Dry with slowly moderating temperatures Thursday and Friday but readings will still be below normal for this time of year.

Another storm system will be moving just to our east on Monday with more precipitation with heavier amounts of rain or snow starting before daybreak on Monday and ending early Tuesday morning.  Precipitation will be mainly rain in the Clifton area but several inches of snow is possible well inland, difficult to pinpoint accomulations right now as it depends on the track of the storm where the rain/snow line will set up.
