Snow Thursday night with record lows by Saturday morning
TONIGHT: Snow tapers off overnight as temperatures fall to near 30 with northwest winds up to 8 mph. Wind chills will dip to the mid 20s by morning. Any moisture left on roads overnight will freeze and areas of ice are possible, especially on bridges and overpasses through early Friday morning.
FRIDAY: Temperatures start off near 30 Friday morning, only reaching into the upper 30s in the afternoon as another fast moving wave of low pressure aloft moves through. This will bring a chance of flurries or brief light snow Friday afternoon but no accumulation is expected from this. An icy wind will increase to 15 mph in the afternoon, gusting to 25 and wind chill readings will drop into the upper teens by evening.
EXTENDED: A hard freeze is expected Friday night as we dip into the upper teens by Saturday morning which could break the record low of 18 from 1926. Wind chills will start off in the single digits early Saturday morning, staying in the 20s in the afternoon. Well have sunshing but it will stay cold as we remain in the upper 30s for highs Saturday. Some clouds will move in Sunday and it looks warmer, with highs in the mid 40s. We are keeping an eye on the potential for snow Sunday night into Monday but until there is more agreement on forecast models, confidence is low. Another surge of cold air moves in Monday, dropping our high temperatures back into the upper 30s Monday and only in the lower 30s Tuesday.
