Another day of gusty winds and mild temperatures is expected across the North Country today, according to the National Weather Service (NWS).

These gusty winds will diminish heading into the evening as the pressure gradient weakens and a period of calmer weather is expected on Thursday, the service says.

Forecasters say the high today will be around 52 with a 30 percent chance of showers. Wind gusts could be as high as 32 miles per hour.

A developing low pressure system will track just to our west on Friday and bring widespread rainfall at sea level and a mix of rain, sleet, freezing rain and snow at elevations above 2500 feet, the service says.
