Bitterly cold Thursday night, weekend snow chance

TONIGHT: It will be the coldest night in the 7-day forecast as temperatures drop steadily through the overnight hours under clear skies. Low temperatures will drop just below 10 by daybreak with wind chills close to -5 with winds out of the north up to 10 mph.

FRIDAY: After a bitter cold start to the day, temperatures will only reach the low to mid 30s Friday afternoon with increasing clouds and light winds shifting to the south.

EXTENDED: Temperatures will briefly climb into the low 40s Saturday. There is a slight chance we’ll see some snow as we head into Saturday, but the overall picture is beginning to trend drier. If we see any form of precipitation, there will be a brief shot early Saturday morning north of I-70 and then as we head into the evening. At this time, little to no snow accumulation is expected through Saturday night. Another fast moving wave of low pressure will move through Sunday, bringing another chance of light snow. Sunday will be very cold, with highs only reaching the upper 20s and lower 30s, falling to near 10 Sunday night. This weekend kicks off a fairly active weather pattern that will lead into next week, with another chance of light snow or wintry mix Tuesday. Temperatures across the 7-day remain below average, with the exception of Saturday. Watch ABC 17 news and check back on our website for updates to your forecast.
