On Friday, Jan. 17, skies will be clear at the end of the workweek, and temperatures will rise slightly, with highs generally reaching the upper 30s.
Overnight, it will become overcast, with mostly cloudy conditions expected throughout the day. This sets the stage for a system that may bring snow to parts of the Northeast and Midwest Saturday night, Jan. 18. (Refer to the second image above for more details.)
Sunday will start partly sunny before clouds increase as the storm system moves from the south to the north.
