A mix of rain and freezing rain are expected Thursday afternoon into the evening. Lows under freezing will cause new ice to accumulate on the roadways.
Friday will have a high temperature of 33 degrees with wind chills between 14 and 21 degrees. Saturday will look similar with a high near 22.
The best chance of ice melting comes on a sunny Sunday when temperatures are expected to reach a high of 38 degrees.
