Any snow shower that hangs on after the sun goes down, could slicken up some roads.<BR><BR>&#8211; A streak of light snow and flurries will arrive on the scene late Thursday into early Friday.<BR><BR>&#8211; The weekend system has a lot of potential. The NAM has to much warm air advection as usual and the GFS is just sniffing it out. I still expect this clipper to track from Missouri into Tennessee. This would lay down a swath of accumulating snows to the north of the track Saturday into early Sunday. Could this lead to our first &#8220;threat mode&#8221; of the season?<BR><BR>&#8211; Wow! Cold and snow chances will rule from the weekend through next week.<BR><BR>I will have another update later this evening so check back.
