A mix of sun and clouds early will give way to a chance for showers towards late afternoon and evening. Any outdoor plans or date night plans should include an umbrella and rain jacket.

Skies should clear out towards Sunday morning before the upper level low arrives Sunday afternoon.

Snow levels during the day on Sunday will be around 9,000 to 10,000 feet, but could lower to under 9,000 feet by Sunday evening.
