Despite a few quick peeks of sunshine in some broken clouds, the gloomy skies continued to dominate the forecast here across the Tri-State Sunday.
Overnight we’ll stay cloudy with temperatures falling down into the low 30s. Some spots may wake up just below freezing, but winds should be calm meaning there wont be much of a wind chill.
Mostly cloudy skies will greet us out the door on Monday with the low 30s, but we FINALLY have some sunshine in the forecast. Clouds will begin to clear out as we move into the afternoon on Monday and that will bring our first case of widespread sunshine since last Monday. That is 168 hours of dreariness. Temperatures won’t warm much with the mid 40s, but sunshine will make it feel better overall.
Tuesday is nearly a carbon copy of Monday, with partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the mid 40s. However, by the evening on Tuesday clouds will move in which is the precursor for rain later in the week.
A strong low pressure system, which will bring severe weather and blizzard conditions to the plains on Tuesday, will bring our next best chance at rain as we move into the overnight hours Tuesday and into Wednesday. Rain looks heaviest during the morning hours Wednesday, with some heavy downpours and gusty winds. Rain will be most of the day on Wednesday and could linger into early Thursday.
Behind the cold front, that comes in on Thursday, we will have a blast of cold air which will carry us into next weekend. Along with the cold air we may even have a few snow flurries Friday and Saturday. No accumulation is expected at this time. What are our chances of a White Christmas? History isn't on our side.
