Weather Update: 8:00 PM Saturday
The sun this afternoon helped melt some of the snow covered areas. Tomorrow more will melt away with more sunshine and even warmer temperatures in the forecast. I hope you were able to enjoy as much of the snow as you could because it won’t last very long.
But, tonight things stay cold. Although the wind chill wont be a factor as the winds are light to calm temperatures will fall into the teens overnight. With the melting snow that occurred today, we could see patches of ice reforming this evening.
Tomorrow, things slowly are on the rebound. Afternoon highs will be in the mid 40s which is just under seasonal for this time of year. The warm temps an abundant sunshine will continue melting the snow cover. If your snowmen are the lucky ones and make it to start the workweek.. the rain will do a number on them.
By Monday, scattered rain showers arrive by late Monday morning and into early afternoon. A warm front will warm afternoon temps in to the upper 40s. But the rain moves in ahead of the approaching cold front. The cold will bring a higher chance for rain along and south of I-40 when the line of showers finally sets up. The rain will continue through the rest of the evening and into the overnight hours. The time you wake up on Tuesday, things should be calmer.
The chance for an isolated light shower to linger on Tuesday is possible but otherwise we will start to dry out. Abundant sunshine is in the forecast to take us into next weekend and the temperatures return to seasonal and above.
