It is still winter and today is proof of that! Any rain shower, pocket of drizzle or splash of snow will end by this evening.
Wind chills will range from the 10s to the 20s this evening. Overnight, wind chills out west may dip to the single digits.
The air cools from the teens to the lower 30s for lows into Saturday morning. Clouds will erode from north to south. The winds should ease later tonight.
Saturday will be the coolest day of the weekend before warming winds commence on Sunday.
Highs Saturday are in the 50s with a jump to the 60s for the end of the weekend. Sunshine dominates on this dry stretch until the middle of next week.
With increasing warm temperatures, a bit of a breeze and dry conditions, fire danger begins to pop back up early next week.
Unsettled weather returns beginning Wednesday and may linger into the weekend.
We will need to see the degree as to how much moisture we can get into the following weekend. Not everybody will get rain, storms, or snow, but some could benefit.
