Freezing Temperatures are on the Horizon

Get ready to bundle up soon.

Meteorologists, including the ones at AccuWeather.com, are warning the temperatures will be dipping below freezing this weekend and the region might even see snow showers in some parts of the state, as cold temps move in from Canada.

Any snow that does fall, however, is expected to be minimal, will not accumulate, and will melt away quickly, according to forecasters.

Also, if you haven’t gotten out to leaf peep yet, do it now. About half the state is peaking and the other half is showing moderate fall colors.

The forecast

Tonight, partly cloudy and cold, with lows in the high 30s, and a 5 to 10 mph hour wind.

On Thursday, mostly sunny during the day with highs in the upper 50s and a 5 to 10 mph hour wind. During the evening though, scattered showers are expected with lows in the low 40s.

The rain is expected to continue into Friday through the afternoon with highs in the upper 50s. Clouds are expected in the evening with highs in the mid-to-upper 30s.

The sun returns on Saturday and Sunday with partly sunny skies and highs in the upper 40s to lower 50s on both days. Overnight lows will drop down below freezing.

Monday is expected to be nice, too.
