The weekend cold is coming...

No denying this one. It is going to be cold! Friday night will see 10 degrees and that will be Saturday's high as temperatures drop all day and thru the night to below zero. Sunday morning will be -5 to -8 in our area. Moderate winds of 10-15 MPH will bring bitter wind chills.

The start of next week will not be as cold but high will just be in the 20's. The on again, off again snow storm for next week is back on. Hooray! Tuesday and Wednesday could see some decent accumulating snowfall amounts. The colder temperatures with some warm air advection will bring higher ratios for the snow.

A normal ratio is 10/12 inches of snow for every inch of water. This should be 15/20 to 1 if not slightly higher. That will make a good snow with just a fair amount of moisture. No predictions just yet for the totals but I do think a snow day could be very likely from early indications. The timing will determine if it is Tuesday or Wednesday.
