We're going to continue to see light to moderate rain throughtout the day today. The valley could see a half to an inch of rain. We’re also going to see an increase in our winds today. Possible gusts could reach 40 mph! Snow levels should remain on average above 3,000 feet. You can expect 1-6 inches of snow at that elevation and another foot of snow above 5,000 feet!

The storm will be out of here by tomorrow but the cooler air will still be in place so despite the added sunshine highs will only reach the upper 50’s and lower 60's in the valley. I’m also expecting the breezy conditions to continue which will make it feel a little bit cooler than it actually is.

By Sunday high pressure builds back over the Northstate and our temperatures will climb the highest they’ve been for most of us for the year of 2010. Lower 70’s are not only expected on Sunday but will stick around through most of next week.

Spring is just around the corner.
