Synopsis
Issued: Wednesday, May 23, 2012 at 2:00 PM
Occasional rain showers and breezy winds will continue tonight, with most of the precipitation before midnight. However, freezing levels will be dropping and after midnight a few snow showers may be seen down to 1400m.
Snow levels rise slightly on Thursday, but we are still expecting more rain showers and snow flurries. Precip amounts will be lighter with a light dusting of snow likely upper mountain and some mixed rain and snow down to mid mountain. Breezy W winds continue.
Expect warming temps and rising freezing levels Friday through Saturday. A few afternoon showers are expected both days, but also a lot of dry time. Temps start to cool down again on Sunday with an increasing threat of rain and higher elevation snow heading into early next week.
