Time and Day: 0630 Wednesday
The Snapshot: One more warm and rainy day before it begins to cool
and the snow returns. Snow tomorrow with a possible powder day
taking shape for Friday and Saturday.
The Science: The barometer is dropping as a fairly large low-pressure
system develops just offshore. Several fronts will work their way into the region during the next several days
and eventually pull in a cooler air mass by the weekend. In the meantime,
the freezing levels will fluctuate
between 3500’ and 4500’ for the remainder of the week.
The Long Range: Snow Thursday night and Friday with cooling will
set up a nice snow event heading into the weekend. Warmer and dry weather begins early next week.
