Starting today, temperatures will cool off a bit into the 20s for a couple of days and then be on the rise again for the weekend. Highs on Friday, Saturday and Sunday are expected to reach the mid to upper 40s.

However, it looks like the chance for any snow cover may be dwindling at least in the near future.
