Weather
Scattered showers and a few thunderstorms continue in the dry Southeast on Friday. But the bigger story is a clipper system moving through Canada. While it will have little precipitation impact in the U.S. by itself, it will bring through a burst of colder air for the weekend across the North. That will set up a thin band of moderate snow from Montana through the Northeast for Friday night and Saturday where a few inches will accumulate.
