Snow/rain ending this afternoon
Anything out there this early afternoon ends in the next hour or two.
Clouds hang around, but we should be dry with the exception of a little spit or drizzle.
Weekend update
Saturday looks good, even a decent amount of sunshine.
Sunday is dry to start, but rain returns in the evening. It also gets breezy on Sunday.
Snow chances next week
While a few raindrops can’t be ruled out early Monday, the precipitation should transition to snow as the cold moves in through the day.
Lake effect snow sets up during the day Monday and into parts of the evening as well.
Later Tuesday into Wednesday, another disturbance brings us a few more snow showers. Some accumulation with this is looking likely, but nothing extravagant.
