0630 Friday:
The Snapshot: There
will be a few more days of clear and dry weather before the pattern begins to
change on Sunday. Got Snow?
The Science: This
morning’s radar has a few high clouds but mostly clear over the region. A large
low-pressure system developing in the North Pacific will break the high-pressure
ridge down on Sunday allowing a series of systems to move through the
region. Freezing levels will bounce
between 3000’ and 5000’ with east flow influence, so expect snow with periods
of rain Sunday through Wednesday.
Long Range: As of
now, totals appear to be 4-8” of snow by 4am Monday, rain Monday changing to
snow into Tuesday with an additional 4-8” of snow by early Wednesday
morning. Those totals will likely change
as the storm develops but so far it is looking ok. The week ends with warming and another mixed
snow and rain event.
