1/14 - 7:20pm - Today Was Just a Preview.

How about that snow this morning? Makes me thankful that I go to school really early, because the rush-hour delays due to the .5" of snow were terrible.

As I hinted to, this is only the beginning. The next chance for snow comes Thurs-Fri, which seems to be a pretty good bet for some snow. How much is the question. I'm going to hazard a guess for 2-3 inches at the moment by Friday evening. This WILL change because this total depends on two separate systems, which can both change in track before then. The NAM is shooting for a sizable storm, but the GFS is being stubborn again. The GFS has blown the track on multiple storms this year. The NAM has a much cleaner record.



The Saturday storm I talked a couple days ago has really toned down, but this clipper could still add on to our snow on the ground (hopefully).

A much bigger storm is on the horizon by Monday, which may or may not include a little ice and rain. We're still 7-days out on this one, but I think this one has more snow potential than the two storms coming up in the short term.

Beyond that we're looking for more 20's and 30's with storm after storm racing through this region. We're really going to have to keep an eye out for each storm here. This is what Winter SHOULD be like, not 70 and sunny like last week. I think this is way more exciting than that pattern.
