There is one last chance for flurries or a snow shower Friday
night into Saturday morning, courtesy of an arctic front. Most of the state
will stay dry. A few flakes…no big deal but the cold that follows will be. This
is the coldest air since last February. But this deep freeze will not last as long.
The worst is over by Monday afternoon.
The high temperature Saturday is misleading because it will
occur in the morning. Temperatures will crash through the rest of the day as
winds pick up, gusting over 35 mph at times. This will send wind chills
plummeting below zero through the afternoon.
The worst cold will be Saturday night into Sunday morning
with lows between -10 and 0 and wind chills as low as -30 to -20. Records will
be challenged on Valentine’s Day morning and in the afternoon. Some towns may
fail to make it out of the single digits.
We’re still on the weather watch for Monday night into
Tuesday. With the cold en route, you might be surprised that we’re thinking
this storm will be more wet than white. Right now it looks like snow is
possible Monday night before changing over to rain Tuesday as temperatures soar
through the 40s. A lot can change between now and then though. So please check
back for updates throughout the weekend.
Forecast Details:
Tonight: Mostly cloudy. Chance for an isolated snow
shower. Low: 9-15.
Tomorrow: Chance for an isolated morning snow shower,
otherwise partly cloudy, windy and bitterly cold. Highs will occur early with

night. High: Upper 20s-low 30s.
