Tonight’s Weather: Snow Showers and Blowing Snow

Tonight brings a chance of snow showers mainly between 9 p.m. and 2 a.m. Along with this, patchy blowing snow is expected between 8 p.m. and 1 a.m., which could reduce visibility on roads and sidewalks. Temperatures will drop to around 22 degrees Fahrenheit, making it quite cold. Winds from the west will be breezy, ranging from 14 to 23 mph, with gusts reaching up to 36 mph. This wind will contribute to the blowing snow and make it feel colder than the actual temperature.

• Chance of precipitation: 50%

• New snow accumulation: Around 1 inch possible

  
  

If you plan to be outside tonight, dress warmly and be cautious of slippery surfaces and reduced visibility due to blowing snow.

Saturday: Cloudy Morning, Clearing Skies in the Afternoon

Saturday starts off mostly cloudy but will gradually become mostly sunny by the afternoon. The high temperature will reach near 38 degrees Fahrenheit, a slight warm-up compared to tonight. Winds will shift from west at 6 to 9 mph to southeast later in the day, bringing a change in air flow and possibly clearing the skies.

This day offers a good opportunity to get outside and enjoy some fresh air after the snow showers tonight. The sunshine will help melt some of the snow, but patches of ice may remain, so watch your step.
