Today will be a very mild day with temperatures possibly reaching the 60 degree mark.

On Wednesday rain will develop around daybreak, temperatures will rise to the 50s. A cold front associated with a strong low pressure moving over us may cause some thunderstorms Wednesday afternoon or evening.  The front will be followed by much colder air with temperatures falling to the 20s by Thursday morning.  It now appears most of the precipitation will end before temperatures fall below freezing so no accumulating snow is expected.

Much colder and windy on Thursday with high temperatures staying below freezing.

Dry and mild Monday and Tuesday! Mainly rain on Wednesday!


We have cloudy skies at daybreak this morning with rather mild temperatures with most readings in the 30s.  There are some flurries to our north and west but most areas are dry.

Today will be a mostly cloudy day but with mild temperatures reaching the 50 degree mark.

Tuesday will be the best day of the week and if you liked Saturday’s weather you will enjoy Tuesday’s upper 50s temperatures.

A storm will be moving into the area on Wednesday with rain developing in the morning with the precipitation changing to snow before ending on Thursday morning.  Still questions how much snow there will fall before the precipitation ends, the best chances at this time of accumulating snow will be just to our north and west.

Thursday will be a very unseasonably cold and windy day with highs mostly only in the upper 20s.

After a very cold Friday morning temperatures will moderate during the day.

Mainly dry and seasonably mild weather for the weekend.
