In short, skies overnight will be mostly cloudy as temperatures dip towards 30°. More clouds will be here by sunrise on Tuesday as another quick moving system, called a Clipper System, is coming into the area on Tuesday. Not only does it bring clouds back into the forecast, it brings in a chance for a wintry mix.
The chance for rain and wet snowfall begins around 8 to 10 a.m. Tuesday to the northwest. By 11 a.m to 1 p.m., that wintry mix will be in the metro area. The line of precipitation will then move to the east and clear the majority of our area ahead of the peak evening rush, by 5 p.m. Precipitation type is going to be the big question, as temperatures will be near, or below, freezing to start the day.
Currently it looks like the majority of this precipitation is going to be liquid. If we did see some snow mixing in, it would likely melt as it hits the ground and not accumulate. We'll see a high of 40° on Tuesday. But if the snow does fall down at a heavier rate, then we could see minor accumulations on grassy surfaces for the duration of the snow. But that should melt quickly as well.
The rest of the week is precipitation free and we have a shot at seeing some sunshine during the afternoon on Wednesday. Thursday will be the warmest with a high of 49 degrees but it's still a mostly cloudy forecast.
