It's just a little clipper...
…but it could be a travel nuisance on Saturday evening.
Here’s what to expect:
The Hoff in a pensive, morose moment. Zero Emmy nominations = travesty.Light to moderate snow develops by 4-5pm on Saturday. The period of steadiest snow will likely be from about 11pm to 2am, but whatever falls will be intermittent. That said, be careful if you’re heading out after dark on Saturday. It doesn’t take much in terms of accumulation or rate to produce a treacherous roadway. The snow tapers to light snow showers, ending by early Sunday afternoon. Total accumulations from this system will be a coating in some places to up to two inches in others. The system is quick-moving and moisture-starved, so don’t expect much.
The good news is that these winds—so strong you find yourself getting pissed off at them when you go outside—will diminish overnight tonight, and will be rather calm throughout the weekend. The temperature overnight will get down to a frigid 14.
Temperatures on Saturday will hold steady in the mid-20s. The high on Sunday will be 34; low will be 18.
Hasselhoff: the only thing that could improve the Puppy Bowl.Monday and Tuesday look overcast and still cold with highs just above freezing (32F) and lows in the lower 20s. (There’s another little clipper that moves through on Tuesday, but I don’t see anything impressive thus far. Just some light snow showers and flurries at best.)
Wednesday and Thursday will feature more sunshine and highs in the mid to upper 30s.
Friday the 8th looks interesting: snow likely from mid-morning to early afternoon, then a bit of ice and freezing rain mixing in. Temperatures holding steady at or just below freezing.
Next weekend will see clearing with highs in the lower 40s and lows around 30.
Next week (beginning with Monday 2/11) looks mild and wet, with rain likely on Tuesday 2/12 and Wednesday 2/13. Highs will range from the mid-40s to mid-50s.
Aside from 2/8, I don’t really see much in the way of winter weather potential. That’s a bit distressing to me as an amateur meteorologist, but I’m hearing a lot of “I’m ready for spring” now that we’ve crossed into February…
Stay tuned for updates!
