Saturday Light Snow Update

10 AM Friday: Latest NAM has further reduced the QPF to 0.07 inches water  should be a minimal snow or dusting

 

Light snow is still forecast by the models for Saturday afternoon. This morning’s NAM had been forecasting a QPF of 0.26 inches water falling as snow, but tonight’s NAM has backed down to 0.17 inches water.

Additionally, tonight’s NAM has the upper atmosphere warming during the afternoon, so some of the snow will be very wet and won’t accumulate very much. Surface temperatures will be close to 32, also reducing accumulation.   One inch is the current best guess.

Still too early to nail this down, but this light snow will be much less of an issue than last weekend’s snow.
