A classic winter weekend with seasonal temperatures in the 20s. Saturday will bring cloudy skies and breezy northwest winds, with wind chills in the single digits. Light snow is possible, with minor accumulations as a clipper system passes through.
Chilly Thursday followed by weekend warmup
A minor setback to our temperatures as highs Thursday climb into the teens and single digits. Our temperatures return to seasonal values Friday through the weekend. A January thaw in the forecast next week with highs in the 30s and possibly 40s.
