2/16/2025 – A very windy afternoon has prompted a High Wind Warning as the wind could gust to 60 mph. There are some showers and storms along the front, and they could also bring strong winds! The truly damaging winds should end this evening, but winds gusting into the 40s could continue through the first half of tomorrow!
We will get cold tonight, tomorrow, and Tuesday.
THEN – My attention is on Wednesday! This storm will likely NOT be as big of a deal for us as I once believed. Some factors could bring snow to the area, and it does have the potential to become more robust than what models are showing, but, as of now, a fluffy 2 to 5 inches seems possible. I know this is a far cry from what I have been sharing for the last 2 days, and I am sorry! I definitely was sold too early because of the unanimous model agreement, but the ensembles (a run of many different variations of the model) did say that I should be more cautious! And I did not listen! 🙁 I am SO SORRY for the over-excitement!
Colder conditions should stick around into next weekend and then I am watching for when the pattern may turn milder. Snow chances after Wednesday may be done for the season.. but we will have to examine that more soon.
