Merry Christmas everyone. I hope you make this the best Christmas ever and that Santa is good to you. If not… there’s nothing wrong with a little coal in your stocking.   We have a very nice weather day in progress as really start to focus on a storm that’s set to impact the region over the next few days.

This system is now taking on a MUCH more wintry look as it tracks to our south and east Tuesday into Wednesday. This system will have a decent amount of cold air to work with and should provide a swath of snow north and west of its track. That COULD include parts of our area. 

The models certainly pass the look test…

This system is certainly getting a lot more of my attention as that’s usually a track that gives us some snow and we do have sufficient cold air diving into the storm. Odds favor rain moving in Monday night with a mix and switch to snow Tuesday. That’s all I can tell you at this point.

There should be a system diving in from the northwest behind this departing storm and that’s something to watch. The models are also going wild with a possible storm and deep trough as we start out the new year…



It looks like mother nature is finally flipping the switch to winter! I will have another update very late today, so be sure to check back. Christmas or not… your friendly weatherdude is still on the job for you guys.

Have a wonderful day and Merry Christmas. Take care.
