    Winter Weather Update 11 PM
    Tonight's GFS model continues to show wrap around moisture and cold air Saturday night- snow starting about 10PM. A total of 0.24 inches water (QPF) translates into 2-3 inches of snow by daybreak Sunday. Information about the models can be found at here.

    As usual, the NAM model shows nothing happening Saturday evening. I'm ignoring the NAM model.

    I'll update tomorrow.

There's a chance of snow showers late at night, perhaps giving a coating of snow by Sunday morning.. High in the upper 40s, falling in the late afternoon.
