Not A Bad Day Today; Snow Event Wednesday…After a cold start today, temperatures will moderate into the lower to middle 30s this afternoon. We’ll be in a weak southerly air flow this afternoon as a disturbance tracks to our north.
The big focus of this forecast package has to do with Wednesday. We forecast a quiet start to the day, but clouds will quickly lower and thicken and widespread snow, briefly heavy, will overspread all of the region tomorrow afternoon. This will be a dry, powdery snow as all of the snow will fall behind an arctic boundary that will slip through the region. As of now we forecast 2″-3″ of snow tomorrow afternoon into tomorrow evening. Strong and gusty north winds will lead to blowing and drifting issues Wednesday evening. All in all, expect the Wednesday evening rush to be impacted. Frigid air will settle over the region by Thursday morning with dry conditions returning.
Temperatures will slowly moderate briefly out ahead of our next weekend weather maker. Keep an eye on Sunday-Monday as that will be our next opportunity for accumulating wintry precipitation.
