It's been a long few days but our winter weather finally is drawing to a close. The area of low pressure behind our wintry weather will continue to move east away from our area as high pressure builds in from the west. Expect clearing skies through the morning as we climb from below freezing temperatures. Highs today will be warmer today compared to yesterday, but still below average. Daytime highs will likely range between the mid to upper 40s for many. Normal highs for this time of year is in the mid 50s.

With high pressure building in, dry and fair conditions will dominate the mid section of our workweek. Expect sunny skies and gradually warming temperatures Wednesday and Thursday. Highs will be near 50 both days.

Our next storm system will likely arrive early Friday morning. Clouds will grow in late Thursday and showers will grow in to the area Friday morning. Based off the latest data this will be quite a soaker for the state. Expect widespread rain Friday and through most of Saturday. By Saturday night, rain will taper off and skies will clear making way for clear Sunday. So yes rain will impact the weekend but at least it's not looking like a complete wash out.
