Time and Day: 0700
Thursday
The Snapshot: Mostly clear with some morning fog and a few high
clouds today. Clouds begin to increase
tonight with rain expected tomorrow night.
The Science: This morning’s IR satellite has mostly clear skies
throughout the state. Clouds will
increase during the next 24hrs as the high-pressure
ridge slowly drifts east. This will open the door for a frontal system to
move through the mountains tomorrow night.
Freezing levels will continue to
be above 5000’ through early Saturday morning, so expect most of the precipitation
to be in the form of rain.
The Long Range: A
cold front moves in on Saturday dropping temps and changing the rain to snow
just before it tapers off. Another front
moves in on Sunday with some fresh snow heading into the new week.
Precipitation Ending at 4am:
Today 24hr water = 0 Snow = 0
Tomorrow’s 24hr water = 0 snow = 0
Trend and Timing:
