Temperatures begin moderating midweek, with a fairly nice, relatively warm day expected Wednesday before some substantial rain arrives with a cold front and attending low pressure later Thursday into Friday. After a fairly dry last couple of weeks, the rain is welcomed …

While the first push of true “cold” arrives this weekend, it’s tempered a bit by a still active tropical Atlantic. We’re not seeing things quite as cold as projected earlier in the week. In addition, a secondary batch of cold that looked like it would arrive around 10/14, looks to be closer to 10/18, give …

A fair amount of heavy, wet snow is expected. This will …

While next week certainly looks below average to start, especially with a possible wintry system arriving on Tuesday, there’s some consensus that we finish the week off well below average. Moving into the final week of the month, there’s less agreement on if the eastern trough hangs tough (which has been the trend for the …
The Week Ahead 4/12
Another typical spring week begins as we head into the mid-month time frame. Plenty of rain chances along with some warmer days can be expected this week.
