Discussion
An intense cold front will barrel through the region early today and it will result in some dramatic temperature changes and likely lead us to some wet snow. After the record warmth of the past couple of days, a much colder air mass will push into the area this morning and temperatures should plunge to the 30’s by the afternoon hours. Rain will begin the day, but should mix with and then change to wet snow as temperatures drop sharply and a coating of snow is possible in some spots. It stays chilly on Friday and cool to begin the upcoming weekend with generally dry conditions expected on both Friday and Saturday. Another strong cold front will cross the region on Monday accompanied by periods of rain and strong winds and a widespread cold air outbreak arrives on Monday night and Tuesday.
