With dry air in place, this may have a tough time getting too far east, but it may also start out as a ping of sleet in the west.<\/p>\n<p>The next system quickly follows that up , impacting our weather from Black Friday through Monday. This storm wraps up to our west then cuts due east. Temps spike ahead of this then crash behind it, leading to the potential for strong or severe thunderstorms in the middle. Winds will also be very gusty as we go from thunderstorms to light snow\u00a0 in less than a day.<\/p>\n<p>Listen, there&#8217;s a lot of extreme energy showing up on the weather maps and that means some big model struggles and model swings.
