Time and Day: 0730 Sunday
The Snapshot: Dry
with increasing clouds today, rain, snow and wind
tomorrow, powder day Tuesday, warm, dry and clear weather for the remainder of
the week.
The Science: A brief return to winter will occur tomorrow
as a strong cold front with cool westerly flow moves
in. The precipitation will likely
start out as light rain and then turn to snow as cooler air fills in behind the
front during the day. Strong winds and
convergence zone development will enhance the snowfall
tomorrow night with some good measurable snow on the ground Tuesday morning.
The Long Range: Spring
weather returns on Wednesday as high pressure rebuilds. Warm, dry
and clear weather will continue through the upcoming weekend.
