Very mild air at the start of the week gives way to a much colder air mass as a cold front finally sweeps through later today. Drenching rains from yesterday should give way to lighter precipitation today, however, with temperatures dropping we could see some light accumulating snow by Wednesday morning. Temperatures will rebound into normal to above normal ranges after a dip into high temperatures in the 30s mid-week.
Rest of today – mostly cloudy with high temperatures peaking in the upper-50s. Long duration southerly flow ahead of an slow moving cold front has brought in a much warmer air mass to the region. Rain chances pick up in the afternoon with the front nearing and continues into the overnight hours with a couple breaks. Behind this front, much colder air rushes in with overnight lows dropping to near freezing. With precipitation continuing, this should allow for a transition to all snow. Light accumulation of around 1″ is possible, though not a lock since the ground has been quite warm for a couple days now with all the rain.
Wednesday – snow winding down in the morning. High temperatures in the upper-30s, about 10°F below normal for this time of year. Skies clearing later in the day with overnight lows in the mid-20s.
Thursday – with a chilly start to the day, high temperatures will have a tough time getting out of the low-30s. Mostly sunny otherwise. Overnight lows in the upper-20s.
Friday – high pressure that fills in behind the cold front passing Tuesday and giving us the sunny weather Thursday eventually moves off to the northeast. Onshore flow should help moderate highs into the upper-40s. Rain chances increase with the next storm system – a possible coastal low – moving up overnight. Overnight lows in the mid-40s.
