Saturday’s forecast:

The National Weather Service issued a cold weather advisory 3AM - 10 AM on Saturday as windchills will be in the teens and 20s! Remember, the wind chill is how cold it feels on your skin, not the actual temperature. The coldest wind chills will be in place through 10 a.m., and while the afternoon brings some relief, the “feels like” temperature is only expected to reach the mid-30s. The afternoon high is forecast at just 44 degrees. Winds are forecast to blow from the north at 10 to 15 mph for most of Saturday, and gusts could reach up to 20 mph. This will keep things blustery, especially in the morning, but winds will calm down by early evening.

Sunday’s forecast:

Saturday night into Sunday morning brings the hard freeze watch. Actual temperatures are forecast to dip into the teens and lower 20s. I hope we all kept our pipes protected because we are back in pipe bursting territory. The below temperatures are actual temps, not wind chills. By Sunday afternoon, the wind will lighten and you can expect a lot more sunshine. While it will still feel chilly, highs will climb to the 50s, making it a far better option for outdoor activities.

Warming up next week:

Sunday afternoon we rebound nicely, with sunshine and highs back into the 50s. Looking ahead to next week: rain returns, but so do the 60s.

Your Extended Forecast:
