Speaker 1: waking up in single digit territory. Now. The record high

57
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,440

58
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: we won't get anywhere close to that, but it's close enough,

59
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,600

Speaker 1: rise our temperatures to around freezing today, and that, believe

63
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: it or not, is making some progress. Maybe some snow

64
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: or rain arrive early this evening. Otherwise it's mostly cloudy

65
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: and temperatures are going to rise in the overnight hours. Tomorrow,

66
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: we'll settle in the mid forties under mostly cloudy skies

67
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,119
Speaker 1: with some showers from time to time, mix of sun

68

Speaker 1: run of thirty degree or thereabouts temperatures, including in the weekend,

71
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,360
