Rusty’s 6 First Alert Forecast - Chilly rain today switches to wet snow overnight

It will be a bit breezy today from the north as well with a few gusts up to 25 mph possible. That will further add to that chill in the air. Rounds of on and off rain and storms will bring some much needed rain to the area today. 1″+ rain totals look most likely near and south of I-80.

That includes any moisture from the melted snow that is likely to fall tonight after midnight too. That snow is the reason why Saturday morning is a 6 First Alert Weather Day.
