Spring Fling…

An approaching storm system will help pull spring-like air into the region for at least a couple days later this week.  Highs will go into the lower 70s Thursday and middle to upper 70s Friday.  After a winter that’s certainly overstaying his welcome, that will feel mighty nice!

Highs will zip into the mid and upper 70s Friday!

Unfortunately, the nice spring-like feel won’t last.  A cold front will sweep through the state Saturday with showers and thunderstorms late Friday night into the daytime Saturday, followed by a dramatic wind shift and much colder air for the second half of the weekend behind the frontal passage.

As upper level energy moves overhead, mixed rain and snow showers will fall early next week.

Longer term, the negative NAO will continue to lead to prolonged colder than average temperatures.  At this point, we think this pattern will run at least through the remainder of April.

The end result?  You know it: a persistent eastern trough and associated colder than average feel…

VIDEO: Weekend Ends With More April Snow…

The weekend will end with more April snow. As we look ahead deeper into next week, a transient, but significant, push of warmth will arrive Thursday and Friday.

Weekend Cold Is Something To Behold…

An anomalous pattern will result in unseasonably cold air this weekend.  A cold front will blow through the state this evening and while a period of snow will accompany the FROPA (frontal passage), the bigger deal will be the weekend cold.  Keep in mind, averages for the weekend include lows of 40° and highs in the lower 60s.

An anomalous weather pattern will grip the region this weekend.

The pattern will deliver a feel more like mid-February (when highs average in the lower 40s and lows fall into middle 20s), as opposed to early-April.

Most of Saturday will be spent in the 30s, and the coldest morning should come Sunday with widespread lows in the middle 20s.

Highs around 40 would be “normal” for mid-Feb and a good 20+ degrees below average.

Lows Sunday morning will be downright bitter by April standards.

And if the unseasonably cold air isn’t enough, a disturbance will “attack” the cold Sunday night leading to a mix of rain and snow that should transition to mostly snow Sunday night.  While this won’t be a big deal, just the fact that we’re talking about snow yet again is getting old for most folks.  Unfortunately, the pattern looks to remain colder than average through late April, despite a brief break late next week.
