WHAT TO EXPECT

The best chance for rain is mid-day to early afternoon. Highs will only get into the mid to upper 40s this afternoon. The showers will start to taper off this afternoon and tonight. A few spotty showers linger with temperatures dropping near 43 degrees by Monday morning.

LOOKING AHEAD

The mostly cloudy skies and spotty showers continue into Monday. Monday is our best chance to get outside with minimal rain chances and temperatures in the mid-50s.

Scattered to spotty showers return Tuesday. We’ll see those showers increase overnight changing over into a wintry mix to some snow into Wednesday morning. We’ll warm up to the mid-40s which allows that wintry mix to change back into mostly rain by mid-day.

The rain continues overnight Wednesday and throughout the day on Thursday. Highs remain in the mid-40s.

In your First Alert 8-Day Planner, we’ll see more sunshine and drier weather arrive by the end of the week into next weekend.
