Nothing Neither Way?
It’s been a season of near-misses, with lots of storms either heading to our north or to our south, and few direct hits. (Actually, shouldn’t the term be “near-hit”? I present this George Carlin monologue to honor his recent passing and celebrate his unassailable logic.)
Here's one they just made up: “near miss.” When two planes almost collide, they call it a “near miss.” It’s a near hit. A collision is a near miss. (WHUMP!) “Look, they nearly missed!” ... “Yes, but ... not quite.”
The storm has taken a turn well to our south, so I don’t even think we’ll see a whole lot of cloud cover—let alone any precipitation—for Valentine’s Day. The next good chances of a snow event are Monday and Thursday. See below for details.
Today will be partly to mostly sunny with those high winds subsiding by late morning or so. High in the mid 40s, low in the low 20s.
Valentine’s Day looks partly cloudy with a high in the low to mid 40s and a low again in the low 20s.
Sunday will bring more of the same: seasonably cool weather and plenty of sunshine with highs in the mid 40s and lows in the mid 20s.
Presidents Day could bring some snow late—though it’s looking increasingly as though that system will also slide to our south. I will let you all know if that changes. For now, let’s call is partly to mostly cloudy and colder with a high of 37 and a low of 20.
Tuesday will be partly to mostly sunny and seasonable: high in the upper 30s, low in the mid 20s.
Wednesday will be mostly cloudy with a chance for sleet and snow, particularly late and overnight into Thursday. High 34, low 28.
Thursday may begin with some snow showers or flurries; remaining cloudy and windy for the day. High 37, low 24.
Friday will see the beginning of a trend toward colder-than-normal conditions: windy with perhaps a lingering snow shower or flurry; a high only in the low 30s, a low in the upper teens.
Next weekend (the 21st and 22nd) is looking interesting weather-wise, particular toward the latter half, which holds the chance for snow and sleet.
Beyond: seasonably cold with highs in the upper 30s to low 40s; lows generally in the mid 20s. Next good chance for snow is Tuesday the 24th.
