By all accounts your Tuesday won't be a medal winner, but it will still be better than the last two days.
Some flurries change to afternoon showers, with a high of 4 C.
The wind will pick up out of the southwest 20-40 km/h by midday, but nowhere near as windy as Monday.
Wednesday's forecast has been rather fluid and it now calls for some literal fluid, with a 40 per cent chance of showers or flurries and a lower high of 6 C than what had been in the outlook in the last few days.
