Good Thursday, everyone. We are rolling toward the weekend with another potent storm system on the way. That’s going to be another big wind maker that produces more rain, but this one has a big change behind it. Arctic air is on the way from Sunday through early next week.

Temps out there today are pretty chilly compared to where we have been. Highs range from the upper 30s to middle 40s with a mix of sun and clouds.

Clouds will increase for Friday as the cold hangs around. The numbers will climb overnight as showers move in. There’s still the chance for a mix in the north, but that’s not very impressive. As the storm system works in here on Saturday, showers are likely with a rumble of thunder. Temps spike into the 50s then crash into the 20s late in the evening. There could be a snowflake or two showing up…

Winds are going to be a major player again on Saturday as gusts hit 50mph or a little greater…

Things get really cold behind this system from Sunday through Tuesday. Check out the numbers…

Highs will be below freezing with lows that can flirt with 10 degrees. Wind chills will be even colder during this time.

If you’re looking for some snow, watch an upper level disturbance moving in from the northwest early in the week. That’s your best chance to see some flakes.

The cold eases late next week, but will try to lock in for the long haul soon after.

I will have updates later today, so check back. Make it a good one and take care.
