As the cold front moves through on Tuesday, the high temps will occur early in the day. Temps will slide through the 30s throughout the day and most areas will end the day in the upper 20s, around 26 degrees.
Below average temps will return for Wednesday with Mostly Cloudy skies before it begins to get slightly milder oQunce again by the weekend.
Right now, the weekend is looking mainly dry across the Southern Tier, with partial sunshine both Saturday and Sunday with highs in the upper 30s both days (the average for this time of the year is 31).
