Next Two Storms

GFS Model's Idea for Snow Through Friday


Two winter weather systems are coming our way.

My live webcast “Upstream” will be going into extended coverage mode because of this.  The live chat with limited audio will be available from 4 pm to 7 pm each day this week.  I will have a full audio map discussion at 6:30 pm and at the usual time at 11 pm.  It looks likely that I will be doing special shows this weekend too as the stronger of the two storms approaches.

A storm system will thicken clouds over the area Thursday with rain following Thursday night.  The northern and northwestern edge of that rain will have to be watched for snow that night.  During the day Friday, winds will shift around to support more pure snow over the area accompanied by a small disturbance will likely lay down a several inches of snow.  I’ll post a snow projection map on the news tonight.

A more robust storm will affect the area beginning Sunday evening and lasting through Monday evening.  This looks to be leaning toward all snow again especially on Monday.  It is too early to project totals with confidence on this storm yet.
