Weather Authority: 5 a.m. St. Patrick's Day Forecast

FOX 29's Sue Serio has a look at the on and off showers that will impact the area on St. Patrick's Day.

After a few consecutive days of spring-like weather conditions, forecasters say we won’t be so luck on St. Patrick’s Day. 

Temperatures dipped into the 40s and 50s overnight after a few days in or near the 70s. Temperatures won’t move much through the rest of the day with highs only in the mid-50s. 

Expect rain to fall on and off throughout the day and impact your morning and evening commutes. Showers should taper off around 8 p.m. with most areas seeing less than a half of an inch of rain when it’s all over. 

Some heavy rain could impact parts of the area in the early afternoon Thursday. 

By Friday, spring-like conditions are expected to return with plenty of sunshine and highs warming to 75 degrees. 

On Saturday some showers could return with a chance of afternoon and evening storms, but highs will stay in the 70s.
