Major Snow Storm On The Way

Good afternoon everyone and what a nice start to the weekend we have but remember this will not last long so enjoy it while you can as we have a MAJOR SNOW STORM on the way and is set to hit us hard late tonight into tomorrow.

Here's a briefing on what to expect and a little run through on how and if anythings has changed.

- Today, unseasonal high temperatures in the upper 50s and maybe a 60 out there is possible as well, we'll stay dry for most of the day today as the system moves in late. Rain showers will be the start to this eventual snow event.

- Rain changes over to snow over night tonight that is the early morning hours and the pre dawn hours as well. Snow should start to fall before sun up and the hardest snows looks to hit in the morning.

- Not much has changed in my snowfall forecast map, so therefore I am not going to make a new one just yet. A new map is very likely later tonight as more is known about where this system will track and how much more or less moisture will be available.

- Effects from the snow: Tree branches being down and small trees downed as well, power outages is a very real threat as well as 5" of this wet, heavy snow on any power lines or tree limbs will bring them down. Now alot of you have already been asking me this or just flat out wondering about this. Will there be school around here? Well honestly I normally do not answer this untill I know all the facts, weather conditions, road conditions ect.. but I will say this, it is very likely school systems will cancel classes for the day Monday and if not Tuesday. I say this because we're talking about possibly a foot of snow and that won't melt too easily ;)

Anyways more updates will be up later today and I hope to be able to fit in at least 2 more full updates later today and of course quick updates will be going up all day long on my facebook and I will most likely be blowning up your news feed with updates eventually ;) Have a great Saturday and take care! :)
