What a mild day out there today with temps in the 30s over most of the area. The LRC had predicted a clipper system 2 months ago for this weekend and our short range models now picking up on it. The storm is expected to come in 2 waves. The first wave of snow will occur Saturday morning as warmer air tries to push into the area. Then we will see a break in the action Saturday night. The second wave of snow comes in Sunday morning followed by WINDY conditions and blowing snow Sunday afternoon. We aren’t expecting a lot of snow but even a few inches with 30-40mph winds will cause travel issues on Sunday. Here’s a look at what our models are forecasting for the weekend clipper system:
Now, typically models over forecast snowfall totals. I believe we will pick up 1-2″ here in the F/M area with higher totals in lakes country.
