A potent cold front quickly shuts off the rain and drops the temperature Monday morning.
As temperatures fall, rain will transition to a brief burst of snow. Any snow accumulations will be less than half an inch, at best. The I-80 corridor could pick up some light accumulations around inch or two by Tuesday morning.
Colder to ring in 2026
Wind chills by Monday afternoon will be in the teens. We’ll also be battling 40 to 55 mph gusts. The blustery conditions linger Tuesday.
