Good morning, Rochester. Here's what you need to know today.

Your Weather Planner

Clouding up today with a steady rain developing this evening and continuing for most of the night.

The setup for the weekend is complicated. A front separating 30s and 40s from 60s and 70s will be draped across the area. 

As of now it looks like this front will occilate north south between Route 31 and Routes 5 & 20 for most of the weekend. 

To the north cold rain showers, possible a little wintry mix Saturday night into early Sunday morning. South of this front, a few showers with some sun and quite warm for the season.

Sunday afternoon the rain will taper off and we are all expected to get into the warm weather for the evening hours as the front lifts north.

A cold front will arrive Monday with more rain showers, possibly a thunderstorm and turning sharply colder for the afternoon into Tuesday.

 Highs: 48 - 53
