NEW YORK, NY — You can keep your boots in the closet after all. New York City is in for a possibly rainy but snow-free weekend, despite forecasts previously predicting as much as four inches of the white stuff for Saturday, according to the National Weather Service.

There's a chance of rain throughout Friday and into Saturday evening as a warm front passes through the city with a cold front following it Friday night, the NWS says. The passing fronts will bring "gusty" winds and some chilly temperatures, the NWS says, but not the springtime snowfall that forecasts had shown on Thursday.

Friday's temperature will reach a high near 55 degrees, slightly cooler than normal, but that'll dip to a high near 46 on Saturday, the NWS forecast shows. The best chances of rain will come late Friday morning and early Saturday morning, the weather service says. Sunday will bring the return of sunshine and a high near 48 before a rain possibly creeps back into the area Monday night, the forecast shows.
