Because so many of you will be outside, the NEXT Weather Team has issued a NEXT Weather Alert for Friday due to the cold and wind. Despite mostly sunny skies, high temperatures will only be in the low 40s, but with winds gusting between 40-45 mph, temperatures will likely feel like they are below freezing all day.
Sunday will bring our next chance for a few snowflakes early and then more rain during the day. Temps will be slightly warmer but still cool in the upper 40s. We will need to watch the early morning hours though, as there could be a few snowflakes early on if the storm system arrives a bit earlier. No accumulations expected, just a sign that things are changing.

Looking ahead to next week, by Tuesday a storm system looks like it will approach the region with the potential for the season’s first snowmaker. Not all models agree, but it’s something to keep a very close eye on! Even if the setup doesn’t produce snow, the storm system still looks like it will bring a good chance of widespread rain and breezy conditions.
The NEXT Weather Team has issued another NEXT Weather Alert for Tuesday.
