The snow accumulation was enough to make the rush-hour drive home a mess on Friday evening.

With 2 to 5 more inches of snow expected, it didn't feel much like spring, which arrived at 6:45 p.m. 

Showers are possible for Saturday, with the sun expected to return Sunday and Monday.

The high temperatures -- only expected to rise from the 30 into the low 40s, won't feel much like spring, either.
