Discussion
A bit of a tricky situation today as we begin the new work week as there is likely to be quick burst of snow possibly mixed with sleet that can result in some small accumulations before milder air pushes in to change the precipitation to plain rain. A frontal system will slide through the region today with high pressure situated off the east coast and it’ll likely be just cold enough at the start for snow to fall and perhaps even accumulate a small amount. A southerly flow on the back side of the high will boost afternoon temperatures to above freezing causing any snow that falls to change to plain rain across the region. A clipper system to the northwest on Tuesday could produce a snow shower around here and the rest of the week looks rather quiet.
