Spring has arrived by bringing in mild temperatures and showers for tonight, but despite the mild temperatures, light snow chances remain in the near future with a rain/snow mix Wednesday and overnight snow chances heading into Thursday.

Cloudy skies will linger over the area throughout today with a few pockets of sunshine possible through the late morning and early afternoon hours. Temperatures will be on the mild side with highs hovering in the low to mid-40s despite the cloudy skies. A light breeze will move into the area with winds ranging between 10 and 15 mph with occasional gusts up to 20 mph at times. Showers will move into the area between 10 pm and 11 pm tonight and continue into the early overnight hours before clearing out between 2 am and 3 am. Showers will be on the lighter side with only a tenth of an inch (0.10″) and a quarter of an inch (0.25″) possible. Temperatures will slowly drop into the low-30s by Wednesday morning. The good news is, showers will clear out before temperatures dip below 32 degrees which means we are only looking at rain tonight.

Wednesday will remain on the cloudy side with a light rain/snow mix through the early afternoon hours, though little to no accumulation is expected.
