FANTASTIC WEEKEND: One of the nicer weekends we've seen in quite some time! We saw 60° on Saturday and Sunday's high of 67° at 3:23 pm was the warmest day since November 9th. It will be a distant memory this week as daytime highs after today will not see the average (51°) for this time of year until Sunday. We may, and I stress the word may, see some snow flurries flying Monday night into Tuesday. More cold air drops in on Wednesday and lows that night will be around 20° by Thursday morning.
WHAT TO EXPECT: Slight chance of rain for today after a rain-filled overnight. Cooler with highs only around 50°. Temperatures fall rapidly overnight, low 29° with flurries. Flurries again on Tuesday morning and we'll fight to hit 41°. The rest of the week will be COLD with flurries on Tuesday night and Wednesday!

Daily Weather Story
The return of the cold air is the big story. After being teased with highs of 51° on Friday, 60° on Saturday, and 67° on Sunday, we'll take a big thud back to reality as Tuesday through Saturday will be below normal once again. While we'll see a few flurries, I don't see (at this point) an accumulating snow to talk about.
