Friday night, winds will be out of the east at about 15 miles per hour with gusts up to 25.

The overnight low temperature in areas south of I-84 will stay just above freezing, meaning precipitation will be rain.

But north of I-84 where there is the chance for snow, the low temperature will be around 30 degrees.

The rest of the day Saturday will be cloudy with the high temperature in the low 40s and a chance for showers at times.
