Cold Wednesday Snow Rain Thursday
Cold Wednesday Snow Rain Thursday
This morning is a great example of a surface map that is being impacted by blocking and a negative North Atlantic Oscillation index which we have spoken about many times. Low pressure to the northeast is moving very slowly east and this high pressure cell has taken almost 4 days to build in keeping temperatures well below normal. An air mass and setup like this a month from now and it could be quite the early winter!
This morning on the satellite loop you can see clouds are still a bit away to the west so we should have plenty of sun. Temperatures however will have a tough time with highs just into the 50s and some areas not getting out of the upper 40s.
Low pressure comes in late tonight and Thursday and that cold high is going to be stubborn to get out of the way. Look for a burst of snow north and west of the coast moving in around daybreak. It ultimately changes to rain but there could be a slushy accumulation in some areas. I made no changes yet in the snowfall forecast map even though models were a tad faster and colder with the onset of precipitation. In the end it doesn’t matter since it changes to rain and we are only talking about at most a couple of hours of snow and sleet.
JOE’S SNOW FORECAST THURSDAY
Once this weather system goes by weather conditions improve for the weekend. Other than a weak cold front that comes through Saturday evening, there are no weather issues through Sunday.
