By Wednesday afternoon, temperatures should rise above freezing and the rain will be just rain. Some thundershowers will be possible then as well. Rain starts to taper off on Thursday afternoon. Plenty of sunshine is then expected on Friday, with partly cloudy skies on Saturday and Sunday. Please drive carefully.
