.DISCUSSION...
Winds become light tomorrow as high pressure moves
through. A mixed precipitation event Saturday brings a mix of
rain and snow, with northern areas having the best chance for
measurable snow Saturday morning (likely to melt due to a
switchover to rain later in the day Saturday). Cold air moves in
for early next week with another potentially mixed precip event.
