We have mostly cloudy skies early on this Thursday morning and temperatures range from the mid 30s in the Clifton area to the upper 20s further inland, winds are nearly calm.
Today we will have a mix of clouds and sun, tempertures will be seasonably mild however colder air from the west will cause readings to fall by late this afternoon. Temperatures by tomorrow morning will drop to below freezing here in Clifton for the first time this season, this is the latest this occurred since I started my records in 1973.
Cold and windy tomorrow with a chance of some snow flurries especially inland.
Below normal air will be with us through the weekend it will be dry on Saturday but an area of low pressure will likely give us some snow from late Sunday afternoon into Monday morning changing to rain before ending Monday afternoon. My first guess is that we could pickup 2-4 inches of the white stuff with 3-6 inches further inland.
High pressure will give us dry conditions Tuesday and Wednesday with below normal temperatures. Even colder air is possible late next week.
