Today’s weather will be a repeat of what we saw earlier in the week, with cold, blustery winds, rain and some good snows in the Cascades — much more winterlike as highs struggle to reach 50 degrees.
Friday morning will be quite chilly, with lingering showers dropping snow levels down to 1,000 feet or lower before somewhat warmer air arrives later in the day.
Forecasters were thinking the weekend would deliver some respite from the winter blues, but it now appears that Sunday might be damp. Saturday will be an in-between day with mostly fair weather, hopefully.
