Clouds, they stick around, and it will be windy tonight. A little light rain or drizzle also possible this evening. Earlier in the week we were talking about a chance that there might be a few flurries that would mix in overnight. Im no longer sold on that. I dont think we have the dynamics in place to see any snow, but we will be tracking drizzle this evening and again it is going to be cold.
