Pretty quiet this week

  • This week is pretty calm weather-wise. A cold front comes through later Wednesday which will drop temperatures by Thursday back to reality. Behind the front we’ll see more clouds Thursday with maybe a couple of snowflakes, but little to nothing.

Warmth returning early next week

  • Temperatures Sunday, Monday and Tuesday will be in the upper 40s and lower to middle 50s. Not bad for March.

Active weather returns middle of next week

  • Still a ways off, but long range models in pretty good agreement that the next good storm moves in Wednesday of next week (Day 8 of the forecast).
  • It’s still a ways off, but pretty solid confidence in it all being rain.
