Your Cortland County weather forecast for Saturday, October 21, 2023:

Low pressure over the Great Lakes has given birth to a new low off the coast of New England which will rapidly intensify today.
While the bulk of the precipitation associated with the coastal low will be to our east, some occasional showers are still expected today as the first low lingers to our west.
Winds will increase from the northwest as the coastal low wraps up, reaching speeds of 10-15 mph with occasional gusts to 30 mph.
This will pull cold air into our region, with daytime temperatures only rising a handful of degrees to the low and mid 50s this afternoon.
These cool winds will also have plenty of moisture to work with, both from the low pressure systems and Lake Ontario. This should lead to some lake enhanced rain showers from time to time.
It will probably not rain for a good portion of the day, but scattered showers will be possible at any time. The morning and later afternoon seem to have a slightly higher chance for showers, though.
Scattered rain showers will persist this evening, then increase overnight and into Sunday morning. Gusty northwest winds will also persist through the overnight.
Nighttime temperatures will initially drop to the mid 40s this evening with overnight lows in the upper 30s. This could be just cold enough for a few wet snowflakes to mix in early Sunday morning.
Here is a look at the weather for the next few days:
Sunday: Cool and breezy with numerous showers. Morning lows in the upper 30s. Afternoon highs in the low and mid 40s.
Monday: More sun than clouds. Morning frost with lows in the low and mid 30s. Afternoon highs in the upper 40s.
Tuesday: Sun and clouds with morning frost. Morning lows in the low 30s. Afternoon highs in the upper 50s.
Wednesday: Mostly cloudy with a few showers. Morning lows in the mid 40s. Afternoon highs in the mid 60s.
