across much of Friday night into Saturday morning. Temperatures will
rise to around 10 degrees above normal Saturday, ahead of the next
storm system that will bring a period of rain Saturday afternoon and
Saturday night. Behind a cold front Sunday rain showers will change
over to snow, with a little lake effect snow southeast of the Lakes
