Showers will reach the area between 5am and 8am tomorrow morning. Temperatures will fall to between 25 and 27 tonight, however upper level warming will in fact keep temperatures close to freezing up through 700mb. Wet bulb 0C will be near the surface so any early precipitation will cool the temperature profile. Rain may be mixed with freezing rain, sleet, or even some snowflakes through noon. This will depend on how early the precipitation arrives for evaporational cooling. No wintry accumulation is expected at this time.
