Discussion

After a very cold day on Tuesday, temperatures will moderate today as a “clipper” low pressure system pushes well to our north resulting in a low-level south-to-southwesterly flow that’ll bring in slightly milder air and there will also be the chance for rain showers. Another “clipper” system can bring some snow here later Friday into Friday night and then a third one can produce some snow from late Saturday into early Sunday. The weekend “clipper” system will usher in a reinforcing Arctic air mass for the first part of next week...some warmer weather is possible during the second half of next week
