Time and Day: 0700 Monday
The Snapshot:
Close to 3” of rain has fallen overnight with more on the way. Gusty winds will also continue through the
day. The precipitation diminishes to scattered
showers tomorrow with more rain on Wednesday/ Thursday.
The Science: This morning’s radar is lit up with more heavy
precipitation heading into the mountains.
A weak cold front will move across the northern portion of the state
early tomorrow morning; dropping freezing levels and providing a bit of snow
before the moisture begins to diminish. Light scattered showers tomorrow with some
clearing can be anticipated.
The Long Range: A
fairly large low-pressure system with
cooler air in tow will bring another round of rain on Wednesday/Thursday. Temperatures drop on the back side of this
system with snow possible heading into the weekend. Stay tuned as those details become more
reliable.
