Just Paint It Grey

Mostly cloudy with a few snow showers overnight. Temperatures stay in the lower 20s as snow showers come to an end Friday. We’ll start the weekend dry enough and we'll even see a few peaks of sunshine between otherwise partly cloudy skies with highs in the upper 20s. A quick blast of lake effect snow will pass late Saturday, persisting in the mountains on Sunday. We'll see weekend snow totals of about an inch in the lowlands and few inches in higher elevations through Sunday. The cold air trend continues this weekend and through next week as temperatures peak just below freezing. A stronger low pressure system will arrive Monday, producing an additional 4+ inches for Tuesday. Light and periodic snow showers will persist through next week with accumulation of another inch or two through Friday. High pressure will finally disperse any lingering moisture in time to finish the workweek. Another wave of widespread snow waits on deck for most of the eastern U.S. for next weekend.
