Confidence: HighAnother cold night with just a few clouds. Lows range from near 20 in our coldest spots to the upper 20s downtown. Confidence: Highisn’t a bad day, with light winds and seasonably temperatures. As some high clouds increase, high temperatures reach the low to mid-40s.

Any frozen precipitation should rather quickly change to rain. Highs range from 45 to 50. More rain is likely Thursday night, with lows 40 to 45.

In fact, it could drop into the teens by Saturday morning, with wind chills in the single digits. A few snow flurries or snow showers can’t be rule out as the cold air rushes in.
