Zigzagging temperatures go chilly for Friday, mild for weekend

In the ongoing tale of zigzagging temperatures, Friday will be a damp and chilly day with some rain showers and temperatures stubbornly climbing into the upper 30s and low 40s. Some freezing rain may be possible early in the day in a few spots, but it probably won't amount to too much. Then it's mild again for Saturday and Sunday (mid 50s to lower 60s) and only a little cooler through the middle of next week. It's after that when it may get at least seasonably cold again, and questions grow regarding a pattern change.

  1. We have a light coating of ice here in New River this morning. When I went to bed last night the temp at my house was 28 and we had a heavy frost. When I awoke, we hadn't had any rain yet, but we just had a shower go through and it slicked things up instantly. Thankfully though, while there is ice on our deck, trees, and my car, the roads were just warm enough to keep from icing. My thermometer now shows it at 33 and it looks like more showers will roll through this morning, but hopefully temps will keep rising.
