Feb 28, 2013 Brief Update

Note: The next full discussion, including an updated 5-day forecast, will be posted starting on Friday.


Tonight - Weekend: Slowly Cooling Down

There are no major changes to the forecast from yesterday's update. Temperatures will gradually cool down over the next few days, dropping on Friday into the low to mid 40s inland and mid to upper 40s for the rest of the area, and into the low to mid 40s for Saturday through early-mid next week, generally slightly cooler than average. Partly to mostly cloudy skies are expected to continue, with a risk of isolated showers on Friday.


Next Week Update:

The latest model guidance continues to signal for a storm potential around next Wednesday; currently, the model guidance keeps this south of the area, some models well to the south, although this is still at least 6-7 days away and additional changes are expected with the models. While most show this south of the area, it is possible that the models trend north with the storm affecting the region including the area, in which case widespread rain and snow accumulations would take place. More information on this will be posted over the next few days as details become clearer.
