you can see how we warm up on sunday and there's a downward trend with highs not even into the 30s on tuesday and then into the lower teens overnight and on wednesday 23 degrees for our high temperature. so that's when we look like to get at least some light snow accumulations, possibly some slick roads early next week. >> there will be some people excited about snow next week. >> at least it's coming in after the weekend. >> during school days, yeah. >> a woman with a bow and arrow targets an innocent bog. >> also ahead on first at four, you

clouds have moved in becoming overcast. nothing is coming out of those clouds, although there are a few flurries that i saw reported up toward indianapolis. the air is to dry, i don't think a lot of it will be hitting the ground. you may see a brief snowflake or rain drop, but i wouldn't worry about it. southeastern indiana dropping into the mid 40s already. that's the weather that's pushing in. if you're in hillsboro, west union, see at 60 degrees. just updated now, right around 59, so the cooler weather is even moving in there. northern kentucky ranges from so it's cooler to the west, that's exactly where the leading edge of that cloud cover is we were just looking at on the camera. been sweeping toward the east all day long. there's a couple of the flurries off to the west, but again it's not even worth an icon because the chance is so low. down to around the freezing mark

20s i think by sunrise tomorrow, that's when we'll actually hit our low temperature for the day. wind coming straight out of the west at 20 miles per hour that's sustained winds. gusts have been a little bit higher than that, between 20 and 30 miles per hour, so a big difference from this morning. we had some power outages around the area this morning with wind gusts up to 40 miles per hour, so they're continuing to slacken off as we go into the evening who and over hours that's the air that's on the way here for the day tomorrow. we're going to struggle tomorrow to reach the upper 30s for high temperatures, but if you look back toward the west you don't see temperatures in the teens. it's about average for this time of year. it's typical wintertime temperatures. so we're not seeing a huge cool down, it's just dropping us back down to average. average temperatures this time of year, 40 degrees. we've been way above that. we're about 10 to 20 degrees above that during the day today and especially yesterday. so here's are some of the clouds that we have around, you notice

just a couple of those light raindrops from time to time. we hold on to the clouds. this is the area in most, mostly cloudy for much of the day even into tomorrow afternoon. they start to clear out late tomorrow night and into the day on friday. you can see they push off towards the east. it's looking really nice on friday. it's a warming trend as well, slightly above average. temperatures into the middle 40s on friday, but a whole a lot of sunshine and we're also going to see some sunshine as we go into the weekend with a few clouds from time to time. 48 on saturday. 50 on sunday. that's about 10 degrees above average. but that's as high as it goes on the planning forecast, because some big changes are on the way. sunday, temperatures near 50. doesn't last for long, an arctic cold front is moving our way. that's going to bring the pattern where we see these on and off snow showers moving in from the north and west and we could have that pattern for several days in a row where we see some light accumulations. this is not a big heavy snowstorm. it's a dusting here, dusting there,

grass as we go tuesday into wednesday, especially tuesday that's our best chance for a few of those snow showers and then high temperatures there you can see that's why we call it an arctic front, because it brings arctic air. highs only in the mid 20s by next wednesday. >> it's where we should do be. right? >> you're never really where you're supposed to be. >> it's normal to be not normal if that makes sense. it's normal to have big warm ups and big cool downs. >> donald trump who came in second claiming voter fraud in the iowa caucuses. >> what? >> he tweeted ted cruz stole iowa and that's why the polls were so wrong. so we asked you about it on facebook, and rhonda who is from iowa responded on our facebook page she said, i'd have to say that i saw no fraud here on the republican side. trump simply was not as well liked here as he seemed to think. in fact there was no one at our location who would even stand to speak in favor of him. >> jay says the accusation is plausible, i can see voters who
