GENERAL OUTLOOK
Deep low pressure will pass across the Great Lakes into the weekend, resulting in gusty northwest winds that will bring snow showers to portions of the mountains through Saturday morning. As low pressure departs on Saturday, high pressure will arrive from the west that will bring a gradual warming trend into the early part of next week.
