Synopsis:
Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow this Groundhog Day, meaning there will be six more weeks of winter, according to folklore- Ha!
A mild Southwest flow will develop today and tomorrow. Today’s readings under a mix of sun and clouds will be several degrees above average. Snowmelt will continue.
Thursday will be Spring-like with light rain developing over Northwestern areas during the morning and then later in the afternoon South and East. As a front approaches from the West Rain is likely Thursday night. Well inland, the rain will turn to freezing rain.
On Friday, the a low along the cold front will pass the area. Rain will possibly change over to wintry precipitation (away from the I-95 corridor) depending on how much cold air bleeds into the system. The potential is there for sleet, freezing rain and some snow even to the coast during the day. Icing may become an issue as temperatures will plummet on Friday to below freezing. There maybe an accumulation of sleet and some snow inland by evening.
No matter the outcome, Saturday will feature another bitter blast with readings below freezing. At least the sun will be shining!
Sunday will most likely crack freezing in many areas under a mix of sun and clouds.
Stay tuned.
