WeatherWatcher: Forecast, cold, then above freezing

Sunday, December 8, 2013

Forecast: This week is going to be a transition week. Not sure how long it will really take for the snow, or freezing rain to turn into above freezing rain. Wednesday looks like the day when we should be completely thawed out. Monday we will have increasing clouds and snow flurries possible. Tuesday snow, freezing rain, or rain will be on the increase. The upper atmosphere is expected to warm faster than the surface so precipitation may begin as rain. Tuesday - next weekend we will be under a series of storms bringing rain, with temperatures just a little above freezing.  We're not out of the woods yet, and may still get a dumping of snow before the change over. Details on snow amount are not very certain, so when we get closer to storm time I will have a better update.

Cold Temperatures: We've had a pretty persistent flow of cold air out of the interior Canada that has been maintaining our cold weather. With clear skies we been able to drop down to very cold temperatures at night for this area. Below is a list of low and high temperatures last week and this weekend. Cold air really started to filter in Tuesday morning.

Monday: Low: 33.8°F High: 41.0°F
Tuesday: Low: 26.1°F High: 35.4°F
Wednesday: Low: 23.4°F High: 33.6°F
Thursday: Low: 20.8°F High: 31.5°F
Friday: Low: 20.7°F High: 29.3°F
Saturday: Low: 15.8°F High: 25.7°F
Today: Low: 14.5°F High: 28.9°F

We haven't been above freezing since the afternoon on Wednesday at 33.6°F. We also haven't seen temperatures this cold since December 7-9, 2010.
