Cold could give way by the weekend

Posted

 Although temperatures might rise back into the 30s this weekend, winter is certainly in the air today, with temperatures in the single digits this morning and wind chills into the minus teens today with northwest winds at 8 to 10 mph.

There might be some snow later today, but the National Weather Service says accumulations likely will not exceed an inch.

Clouds will obscure the sky this evening, as temperatures dip back into minus territory, but light winds will keep the wind chill factor in check.

The chance of snow showers remains tomorrow with high temperatures into the 20s, and wind chill will be a factor as winds could gust as high as 22 mph.
