should be a nice evening for it, very festive. no major showers going on, at least for now. temperatures are holding in the 30s inland. we have 41 along the lake shore, and it will just be kind of a cool and damp evening for us. there is cooler air aloft, and at the surface just to the west of bus somebody that will he start to move in as we go through the latter part of the night tonight. that will help to kicked off more scattered showers. you can see here in in michigan how these rain showers are coming down wof we will pick up some lake enhancement, and a bit of a wind shift will drive those showers further inland. a lot of cloud cover going to be around, so just don't count on seeing sunshine, but did you see how we start to see the rains changes over to a mix, and shen snow showers in the higher terrain areas west of cleveland. and those rain showers will be coming down as we go through the night tonight. now, wire not only in the primary snow belt here.

does not look any lyle any travel problems in ohio for this sunday. so that's good news. we have this rain-he snow mix changeover tonight. it is generally in the primary snow belt areas. we need to get up into the colder air to allow that accumulation to happen,, and it's really nothing for these snow built areas out to the east to get an inch. so it's not go doing be too bad for us. you're window nation forecast has highs tomorrow only in the low 40s. but then a nice jump coming our way on sunday, as we dry things out. upper 40s expected with partly sunny skies. rain chances will be on the increase late monday. this will be a southern storm system that comes our way. it's bringing warmer air with it. that's the jump into the upper 50s on tuesday, but rain and wind is likely will hang out in the 50s, and upper 40s on wednesday, and then cool it back down into the low to mid- 40s as we dry things out thursday and friday of next
