FOX 5 Weather afternoon forecast for Friday, January 15

Michelle Rotella has the FOX 5 Weather afternoon forecast for Friday, January 15.

With the colder air on the backside of the front we could see a few passing snow flurries on Saturday. No accumulation is expected but there could be some snow showers and accumulating snow over the mountains.

Friday will be a bit cooler than Thursday with highs in the low 50s and Saturday we dip back to the 40's as colder air makes a return.
