(WCTV) &#8211; A couple of cold fronts will keep wintry conditions in our area for most of the next several days.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\"> The first front will move through before sunrise Thursday, leading to a cold and breezy afternoon with highs staying in the 40s, and the wind making it feel 5 to 10 degrees colder. That sets the stage for a likely widespread hard freeze Friday morning, with inland lows in the low to mid 20s. This will be a night\/morning when we need to protect people, pets, plants AND exposed pipes. A warmup starts after that into Saturday, as highs return to the 60s, and then the next front will bring a few showers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">After that, the big \u201cwill it or won\u2019t it\u201d weather event happens on Sunday morning as an upper level disturbance moves into colder air in the southeast. A large majority of the time in setups like this, we just get a few cold rain showers, and by the time it\u2019s truly cold enough for snow, the precip has departed. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">At this point, IF (and that\u2019s a big, huge, doubtful \u201cIF\u201d) any snow does occur, it would be mixed with departing rain, with no accumulation as temps will be above freezing. This setup is NOT like last January.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Let\u2019s get through Friday morning\u2019s hard freeze first, then we\u2019ll have a closer look at the Sunday system.
