pounded and we are left with clouds and clearing skies. let's go to our weather maps and show you some of the weather today in terms of the totals we got. we got up to 14 inches in some of the areas to our far west across many of the regions and up to an inch or so near the city. but low temperatures, october chill, that's what we are dealing with. behind that storm system, nice rich of high pressure has built in. that's going to hold us in for a nice day tomorrow. and we're going right to the five-day forecast. plenty of sunshine. 49 degrees for your sunday. halloween, i'm happy to tell you, is going to be partly cloudy skies at 56 degrees. it's not going to be too bad for trick or treaters. we do fairly well on tuesday as well as wednesday. and as we move into tuesday, mainly cloudy skies at 60 degrees. so, we'll take a shot at radar one more time and let me see if we can get up the warnings for you. we have a freeze warning in
