The unsettled weather we have been advertising for many days arrived last night, with light rain, higher elevation snow, and even some thunder!

We’ll climb to near 45 degrees, with a cold front to move through late this morning. With it, precipitation returns to the region!

Look for a rain/snow mix early on, changing to all snow for everyone by the middle of the afternoon. Snow should wrap-up before midnight. We’re looking at 1-3″ for the area, mostly confined to grassy and elevated surfaces. Highest totals north and west, lowest totals south and east. Our forecast map is below.
