Weekday Snows, Weekend Mix

Clouds build throughout the day as a low develops to our south, with a spot of rain possible this evening before switching over to snow by late evening. This should be a quick and minor event, with a couple of inches possible in most areas and up to 6 possible at the most elevated regions. Here's our Forecast Snow Accumulation Map with details for this evening through Thursday morning. Once this feature passes, all is quiet until at least Sunday, when a low from the north could bring mixed precipitation to the region.

Forecast Discussion

The warmest temperatures of the the week occur this afternoon ahead of a low zipping to the south; behind the feature looks much more interesting as any early rains change over to snow overnight. For a majority of the area, we're looking at a couple inches at best but in the more elevated and exposed regions such as the Grayson Highlands could sneak half a foot out if all things remain optimal. Things should taper by midday Thursday, with a chill looming behind.

Behind the system, little in the way of drama occurs as a high pressure chill settles over the area; clear and brisk skies should dominate into the the weekend.

By late Saturday into Sunday, however, a second low approaches from the Rockies and puts us on the border zone of any interesting winter weather. At the present time, it looks like snow could start early Sunday ahead of the warm front, followed by a changeover to a mixed bag before ending primarily as rain by the afternoon. This track could easily vary given the time range, so remaining vigilant as usual is the best approach while the kinks get ironed out. Residual snow showers could continue into Monday/early Tuesday, with cold and quiet expected otherwise into next week.
