Highs in the 40s feel almost mild compared to the winter cold and snow from earlier this week.  Temperatures will slowly tick up the next several days.  But the warmup comes with limited sunshine. Friday and Saturday remain mainly dry, but a shower can’t be ruled out each afternoon.  Showers are most likely on Sunday along with temperatures in the 50s to around 60 degrees.  With the mild air and patchy fog, snow will melt at a rapid pace. The cool down begins Monday. By Tuesday we’re back in the 30s.
