It was a big shock to the system with the cold wind Friday afternoon as afternoon temperatures only rebounded to the mid-30s. Officially, Friday's high will go down as 41 degrees, but that was reached not long after midnight.
This weekend will be far cooler than recent temperature trends with afternoon highs near or below freezing. We will keep the breeze and cloud cover around, likely preventing temperatures from reaching 30° Sunday afternoon. Wind chills will make it feel closer to the low 20s Saturday afternoon, and teens or cooler for Sunday.
A few weaker systems will pass through over the weekend, bringing a slim chance for flurries from time to time. The best window will be Saturday night into early Sunday morning. Any snow that does come down will likely not accumulate locally but could cause a few slick spots. Sunday afternoon will end up dry, but mostly cloudy and windy.
Wind gusts could push 25 mph from the West-Northwest on Saturday, and nearly 30 mph from the Northwest Sunday. Winds will ease Sunday night into Monday as high pressure takes hold, but the cold breeze will stick with us this weekend. Wind chills may feel as low as the single digits, particularly Saturday night into early Sunday.
