Sct’d Showers This Afternoon. Rain to Snow Tonight…

Synopsis:

A front with a weak developing area of low pressure will move to the Eastern Seaboard today and tonight. Scattered showers will likely develop this afternoon and evening. As the colder air works in the rain will turn to snow showers or a quick period of snow  overnight and end early Friday Morning. Up to a coating is possible in spots.

It will be cold to start the weekend with high pressure overhead on Saturday. An area of moisture over the Southeast with an area of low pressure looks very close to the trim-state area on Super Bowl Sunday and Monday Morning. Snow showers are possible on Sunday. The one ingredient that this scenario is lacking is cold high pressure to our North. For this reason, the snow will most likely go over to a mix or rain for many areas. This is by no means etched in stone. But high pressure is needed to support a snowstorm. All all snow event is highly unlikely at the point at the coast. Still a few days to watch this unfold.

Stay tuned.
