Friday - Saturday storm and beyond...
Complicated storm arrives tomorrow evening, but we will see mostly light rain and drizzle from it.
The Weather Channel is calling it "Winter Storm Q." You know how TWC decided to name winter storms this year? And they had Nemo and Luna, et al? Yeah, they apparently couldn't come up with a Q name. I mean, how difficult is it? Quincy, Quentin, Quadrant, Quail-face, Quim Brown? Sheesh.
Here's what to expect:
Friday begins with sunny skies, but clouds (and winds) will increase throughout the day. High will reach the upper 30s.
Drizzle starts around 8 or 9pm. We may see some slick surfaces, so use caution when driving, especially late Friday night. Early Saturday morning may see some slippy spots, too. However, I think for the most part, roads will just be wet with this event.
Saturday, mid-afternoon.Saturday will be rainy (showers and drizzle), cool (holding steady in the 30s) and a bit breezy. Tapering toward evening, then clearing skies.
Sunday looks sunny and breezy; high 40. Monday looks sunny; high 44.
[Once again, it looks as if upstate New York and much of New England will get slammed by this storm. Everyone south of New York City will see all (or mostly) rain.]
The next decent chances of wintry weather are Wednesday 2/27 and Friday 3/1, but even these are far from blockbusters.
Stay tuned for udpates!
