WARMING TREND: This cold snap, will make a quick exit stage right and we are going to start to see our temperatures begin to moderate midweek. A high pressure system will push temperatures well above normal with near record highs on Monday and Tuesday.

An upper level disturbance will move southeast toward our area on Saturday and this will cause clouds to increase. Highs will be in the upper-30s.
Outside of a lingering sprinkle early, Tuesday will be another dry, windy, chilly day, with temperatures struggling to get out of the 50s in many spots. No need to worry, the precipitation will be very light, and no impact is expected.
Highs will reach only the single digits above zero on Saturday, with lows plunging to the mid-teens.
Monday there is a slight chance of showers (mainly toward the north) ahead of a cold front that will pass through Monday evening. Unlike the past few years, the weather should cooperate nicely for all events on Fat Tuesday.
