ALERT: None.
AWARE: Scattered light snow tonight into tomorrow.
This is running almost 15-20 degrees below normal for late October. It will remain cloudy and dry for any trick-or-treating tonight, but temperatures will fall into the 30s. So might want to consider wearing some extra layers with those costumes!
Get ready to see our first round of snow on the first day of November! Scattered lake-effect snow showers will start up after the trick-or-treating is done, and it will last into tomorrow morning. Some places could pick up a quick dusting. Higher elevations could see up to an inch by morning.
Temperatures will fall into the 30s overnight with some places potentially into the 20s.
This will be another hard freeze. Light snow will remain scattered into Wednesday afternoon, then clouds will decrease by evening, and it will remain cold with highs around 40 degrees.
There might be some snow squalls around throughout the day. If this does occur, we could see a quick drop in visibility and snow accumulations. Be cautious on the roadways if you do encounter any squalls!
We eventually see the sunshine and warmer temperatures as we head closer to the weekend. Skies appear dry for the Steelers game Thursday night, with temperatures in the low 40s to upper 30s by the end of the game. Friday will be back in the 50s, and so will this weekend.
Saturday will be dry, but more rain will arrive on Sunday. So, unfortunately, it's not going to be a rain-free weekend again.
