Tomorrow (Wednesday): Patchy areas of snow or a mix of rain and snow are possible in the morning. Because models have backed off on the intensity and coverage of predicted snowfall, a light coating (mainly on grassy areas) or no accumulation is most probable. Any snow or rain ends by the early afternoon with skies becoming partly sunny and highs near 40. Winds are nearly calm. Confidence: Medium
