mark despite the clear skies because we have a bit of a breeze with us. it's coming out of the southwest and that's continuing to pump in that mild air for tomorrow. then we turn our attention to this system here. we don't get any of this snowfall, you see. the storm heads well to the north of us but it does drag through this cold front. so we'll run through the time line here kicking off some showers right around midday, i would say from 11:00 a.m. until about 1:00 or 2:00 in the afternoon. and then it doesn't look like any of us miss out on this completely but it's not a complete washout by any means. enough to maybe make the roadways damp or the sidewalks driveways as we head into around midday and it's out of here by the afternoon and we still see mild temperatures. overnight tonight, keep a bit of a breeze around 37 or 42. tomorrow, 54 to 60. very similar to the numbers that we saw today for is what we're in stor sore for tomorrow afternoon.
