Tracking a light drizzle before a slight warm-up Thursday

Today: scattered light drizzles remain possible as highs climb into the early 40s. 

Tonight: temperatures in the 40s bring our high today around midnight tonight, before temperatures fall back into the 30s by sunrise. Many should avoid freezing again Thursday morning.

Extended: Clouds and fog clear Thursday morning, sunshine should help boost temperatures back into the mid-40s, despite a switch to northerly winds. Those north winds will have us feeling cool the next morning, with lows in the 20s Friday. As clouds move in, temperatures on Friday will be near average for this mid-winter day, near 40. Clouds on Friday precede a system that brings rain chances Friday night into Saturday, and a great deal of uncertainty regarding Saturday's temperatures. For now, its reasonable to think that this could boost highs to near 50, but much remains to be pinned down regarding this. It's also beginning to look like we could see our next snow flakes with a chance for a wintry mix at the beginning of next week.
