Discussion
Today will be the warmest day of the week with afternoon highs climbing into the 60's and perhaps even record-breaking. A strong cold front, however, will cross the region early tomorrow and much colder conditions will return for the weekend as strong Arctic high pressure builds to our north. A frontal system will stall out to our south this weekend and a disturbance will ride along its frontal boundary zone and the result could be some light snow here late in the day. At this time, the expected precipitation amounts for this weekend’s event appear to be on the light side aound here with higher amounts to the south. Looking ahead, the much coveted “January thaw” looks like it may head our way next week and last for several days, but a cold pattern is likely to return later this month.
