Midweek Snow: Not As Much As We'd Like

After the craziness of yesterday's flooding and rapidly falling temperatures, today (Sunday) turned out to be a frigid but calm day. Once again we're heading near the 0 mark on the thermometer, but the wind chill will not really be an issue.

Our midweek snowstorm will unfortunately stay as an Alberta Clipper and not develop as a coastal storm, as we were hoping it would. (Actually, it could develop as a coastal storm but that will happen off the coast of Maine and not impact our area much at all.) This means snow totals will be in the 1-3 inch range. It will probably not be enough to satisfy our cross country skiers and sledders, but it will cover the ground completely.

Good, but probably not good enough.

We will see snow this week. We should see a period of snow Monday evening, then snow showers throughout the day on Tuesday. The heaviest of this light snow event should then fall Tuesday night, perhaps lasting into Wednesday morning's commute. Our radar is up for possible delays on Wednesday, but overall the GSD Staff is not "feeling it" on this storm.

We'll monitor the Wednesday morning situation as we get closer to it. For now, enjoy MLK Jr. Day and the return of snow on Monday night.
