The next few days will be a roller-coaster weatherwise.
First, the Tuesday through Wednesday timeframe should be nothing like this past Sunday’s icestorm. This upcoming storm on Tuesday will be much warmer and wetter. While precipitation may start as snow, it will quickly turnover to sleet and then rain. Some sleet buildup, but it should not be a major concern long term.
Unlike yesterday, temperatures at the surface will rise above freezing and the entire atmospheric vertical column will be much warmer. So a turnover to heavy rain is expected Tuesday evening and the rain should continue into Wednesday. There should not be the extensive ice buildup we have just experienced.
Rain continues Wednesday, as the low pressure system moves through to our north, and a cold front will move through sometime later Wednesday. Timing uncertain.
Temperatures will be in the 40s on Wednesday, not likely in the 50s as had been previously thought.
Wednesday night into Thursday, the GFS has the front stalling just to our south as a wave of low pressure develops and moves along the front. The final stalled position of the front is uncertain, but the GFS is pumping out some significant snow late Wednesday into Thursday (4-8 inches) right now. Too soon to really know at this time. Stay tuned.
So the only really impactful event may be Wednesday night into Thursday.
Latest NAM tonight has upper atmosphere too warm for snow late Wednesday night into Thursday. Looks more like sleet, less snow.
