Highlights:

  • Snow showers and windy
  • Dry, chilly close to the week
  • Turning milder this weekend
  • Next storm lining up the middle of next week

Temperatures will get several positive boosts in the right direction just in time for the weekend.  Despite a bit of a breeze Saturday, sunshine and lower 50s will be great!  Things turn increasingly windy Sunday with afternoon/ evening showers possible.

42.)  A significant warm-up is still on schedule for late week, centered on Friday, where temperatures will likely push to, or exceed, 60 degrees as ridging builds in.  Image courtesy of Tropicaltidbits.com.

13.)  The warmth will be brief, however, as a colder pattern returns (thank you positive PNA), including an interesting look for winter storm potential across the east days 8-10.  (No need to get fancy with specifics at this juncture).
