As winter deepens, staying on top of the weather forecast becomes essential. This week, a series of snow showers are on the horizon, especially in the evenings. With temperatures dropping and wind picking up, here’s how the week will shape up in terms of precipitation and conditions.
Tonight’s Weather
Tonight, snow showers are set to begin after 9 PM, with temperatures dipping to about 23°F. Expect southwest winds at 5 to 10 mph, shifting to calm conditions later. The chance of precipitation is a notable 80%, with expected snowfall accumulating to around one inch.
It’s a perfect evening for a warm drink indoors, as you enjoy the serene glow of snowflakes drifting outside.
Monday’s Conditions
On Monday, prepare for an uninviting day for outdoor activities, as lingering snow showers are possible throughout. Conditions will be mostly cloudy, and temperatures will reach only around 35°F. A light breeze from the west at 3 to 6 mph may be a small comfort, despite the 30% chance of more snow.
You can expect new snow accumulation to be under one inch, creating slushy roads that could slow down your commute.
If you had outdoor plans, it might be wise to postpone them since visibility could be low due to falling snow.
Monday Night Forecast
Monday night will see similar conditions, with snow showers expected to continue. The precipitation chance hovers around 50%, with cloudy skies and temperatures again near 23°F. Winds will settle, creating a still but chilly evening. Anticipate minor snow accumulation of less than half an inch.
It’s the kind of night to cozy up at home with a movie or a good book while the snow falls softly outside.
Tuesday Insights
On Tuesday, the likelihood of snow showers rises, particularly after 1 PM. Temperatures will only reach a high of 34°F, with calm winds picking up slightly to 5 to 7 mph. The chance of precipitation increases to 60%, and snowfall accumulation is expected to be under one inch.
This could be a great chance for families to enjoy light winter activities, like building a snowman or sledding, as long as conditions permit.
Tuesday Night Look Ahead
Tuesday evening may see a few more snow showers before 1 AM. With mostly cloudy skies and a temperature drop to around 23°F, check road conditions if you are heading out late. Winds will remain gentle at 3 to 6 mph, contributing to the chill outside.
Mid-Week: Wednesday & Thursday
Wednesday will bring ongoing snow showers, especially after 1 PM, with an 80% chance of precipitation. Anticipated daytime temperatures will hover around 34°F.
By Wednesday night, expect similar conditions with snow continuing and a low of around 26°F. With a 90% chance of precipitation, prepare for potentially longer travel times due to reduced visibility and slippery roads.
On Thursday, the snow will persist with a high near 35°F and an impressive 90% precipitation chance. When the temperatures drop to approximately 18°F Thursday night, snowfall continues at an 80% chance, turning the landscape into a true winter wonderland by the end of the week.
