A cloudy, dry Thursday

and last updated

CLEVELAND — A few lake-effect snow showers will slide across the area overnight. For most of us, it's just a light coating. We could see an inch of accumulation for a few spots in the snow belt. Skies will be cloudy, with patchy fog possible. Lows tonight will fall back to near 30 degrees. We should dry out early Thursday before our next clipper. Friday looks like another snowy day ahead of some frigid temps!

Thursday looks good for shopping and travel. The skies will stay cloudy. I can't rule out a flurry early. Otherwise, we are dry through the day. Highs will be in the middle 30s.

An Alberta Clipper low-pressure system drops in from the northwest on Friday. Scattered light snow will impact everyone. Accumulations of a trace to 2 inches can be expected through the day into the evening hours. Highs once again, hang in the lower and middle 30s.

Colder air moves in for the weekend, along with some lake-effect snow. Highs on Saturday and Sunday will get stuck in the middle and upper 20s. Snowfall totals Saturday and Sunday should stay in the 1-4 inch range in the snow belt.

Looks like a Green Christmas for most of us this year. Scattered rain showers arrive on Christmas Eve and linger into Christmas Morning. Highs on Tuesday will reach into the upper 30s. Highs on Christmas Day should jump to near 40 degrees. Ho. Ho. Ho.
