Monsoon's quick update re: February snow potential
Just a few words about the next couple of weeks and what they could bring in terms of wintry precipitation. After all, February is the snowiest month of the year in this area (though in some locales nearby, January edges it out). Here’s what to expect…
Tuesday 2/2 to Wednesday 2/3: I’m looking at a moisture-starved system winging by from Tuesday evening to the Wednesday morning rush hour. Overwhelming evidence suggests that we’ll see just intermittent snow showers and flurries, but there’s a chance we could get a couple inches. I’ll update if I develop any more certainty about what we’re in store for.
Friday 2/5 to Sunday 2/7: Another round of moisture comes through from the south and west late Friday night through Sunday afternoon. Right now, model guidance is scattered on the track and intensity of the snow we might see. My best educated guess is that we’ll see snow showers on Saturday and Sunday with low accumulations and driving hazards only on Saturday night. Some rain could mix in, particularly as temperatures rise on Sunday.
Sunday 2/14 to Monday 2/15: The middle of February has historically been an active period (think, especially, 2003), and it looks like this year will be no different. There are indications that we could see a blockbuster around this time.
Stay tuned for updates…and as always, thanks for reading!
