Discussion
The overall pattern around here has been warm and dry in recent days, but important changes arrive by the weekend. A colder air mass will push into the area on Friday night and the transition will likely come with occasional rain. In fact, it’ll turn cold enough by the early part of the weekend for some snow shower activity across the nearby higher elevation locations. One other note, the comet will remain visible in the western sky during each of the next few evenings assuming favorable sky conditions and a “dark enough” environment...look to the west about 45 minutes after sunset.
