If any of you snow lovers scanned your radar images this morning (Sunday), you might have noticed a large swath of snow in northern New England. We're excited to report that snow threats are beginning to creep into the ten-day forecast.

| Wet snow is officially in the region. |
It's highly likely that we just experienced the warmest weather we'll see for five or six months. On Friday, Albany tied a 60-year-old record by getting up to 78 degrees. While we might see the occasional spike into the 60s in the next five weeks, a consistent stretch of temps in the 60s is unlikely from now until April.
Increasingly, we're seeing the flurries and snow symbols work their way into meteorologists' forecasts. A few days ago we were getting all tingly in the GSD office as the words "coastal storm" and "nor'easter" were being mentioned for Wednesday. Unfortunately, it looks like the storm will form too far off the coast to bring as any midweek wintry weather. With the storm going out to sea, cold air will get pulled into our region and Wednesday is going to feel downright wintry--highs in the low 40s and lows in the mid-20s. You may need to scrape the windshield for your morning commute on Thursday.
As for the end of the week, temps will be more normal for this time of year (mid-50s), but it's expected to turn cooler over the weekend and into next week (back to the 40s). A mix of rain and wet snow and/or flurries are possible Monday and Tuesday.
Keep the faith. Snow will be here soon!
