Monday/Mid Afternoon

WEATHER CODE: YELLOW ***Ice and rain expected tomorrow***



Tricky forecast shaping up for tomorrow. Precipitation will start out as freezing rain and sleet then change to all rain tomorrow night. The question is how much ice accumulation do we get before the change over to rain? Right now it looks like a minor event, but models, I believe have been overplaying the warm air. All in all, could be some slick roads tomorrow afternoon, so if you have any travel plans...be careful! Precipitation may end as a brief period of snow on Christmas Eve, but right now doesn't look to be enough to cause to many problems. I will have much more today as the latest model runs come in. More later...

Have you seen the severe outbreak potential the GFS is painting on the 18Z for Saturday afternoon?

This could get interesting...something to watch.

Hey Pat...

Check out the SPC Day 4-8 outlook. I suspect we'll see at least a MOD RISK for Saturday. Very rare for the SPC to paint a risk area in days 4-8 this time of year. They must be pretty confident.
