Time and Day: 0630
Thursday
The Snapshot: Dry,
with broken clouds today. Dry weather with
warmer temperatures will continue through most of the weekend.
The Science: Satellite imagery has a midlevel stratus
layer of clouds blanketing most of the eastern portion of the state with
clearing to the west. Like yesterday,
some light snow could be produce by this thin layer of clouds, but no
significant snow is expected.
High pressure
aloft will keep the atmosphere stable and dry for most of the weekend. Warm and relatively dry SW flow will bring
rising freezing levels to the mountains for the next few days. Freezing levels could to reach +5000’ early
Saturday morning.
The Long Range: The high pressure system is expected to weaken
and drift southeast on Sunday. This will
open the door for a pattern change to cooler and wetter weather. However,
there are no major storms showing up on the long range models.
