Weekend forecast: Rain departs Saturday, with sunshine (and continued chill) thereafter

/ January 11, 2025 at 12:47 AM

After a day in which we received a trace of snow at the airport for the first time since the January 2018 winter storm, we will dry out on Saturday with low pressure moving away from the area. We start the day with showers tapering off in the early morning; these should be gone by mid-morning, though. Lows will bottom out in the 30s overnight but we’ll be warming up as the night goes on, and we should wake up to temperatures in the 40s Saturday morning. As low pressure departs, so does the cloud cover, and we should end up with a good bit of sunshine before it’s all said and done. Expect highs to reach around 50-51° or so — you’ll definitely still want the jackets.

Sunday starts out in frigid fashion once again with lows in the mid-20s expected. Highs will only reach about 50° despite plenty of sunshine as northerly winds continue to keep the airmass a little on the chilly side. The good news is that we should be largely dried out before Sunday morning’s freeze, so I’m currently not anticipating any traffic concerns. Stay warm and enjoy the weekend!
