happens there. overnight tonight, the slightest chance for a few flakes to fly. hoping that we will not predict that much more. the rest of this is spring. 50 degrees for tomorrow, a little bit warmer, but variable clouds through the day. 35 degrees tomorrow night. i think we will see more sunshine on sunday. and then as we go into the opener, again, a chance for showers will be there. all
