Clear sky for tonight with temperatures dipping down below freezing.

TOMORROW: The weather looks to be pretty mild tomorrow with temperatures in the low 5os across the area. It will be mostly clear and dry for your Sunday!

NEXT WEEK: Once the cold weather passes, we are headed into a warming trend for next week! Temps will begin to climb out of the 50s and into the mid 60s by midweek. We will stay dry for the beginning of the work week, but rain returns ahead of another front Thursday night.
