A brief interlude of warmer temperatures is set to begin today and continue through tomorrow as a storm system pushes by just to our north. The thermometer will warm above freezing by 10am or so today and stay there through the overnight and into tomorrow.. Some rain will likely fall, especially this evening/overnight. The best window to expect rain is between 7 and midnight tonight. A second round of more sleet-like rain will fall tomorrow morning. 

A cold front is likely to slowly sag through the area during the overnight on Wednesday and it will be quite windy. Thursday and Friday will be transition days as we dry out and temps stay cold but not frigid…

Because that frigid air IS returning. Temps will plummet on Saturday and Sunday as the last of the polar vortex disturbance sweeps through. The mercury could dip below zero on Sunday and Monday mornings, with highs over the weekend likely being confined to the 10s. 

BUT THEN - we will slowly warm back up next week and it looks like a major pattern reversal lies waiting for us on the horizon :) —> 

As I mentioned yesterday - temps will climb back closer to “normal” (30s and 40s) beginning the 16th or 17th and will remain there for at least a week or more! 

Tl;dr - milder today. High: 35-40, warm overnight + rain, 30s tomorrow. Frigid this wknd - rainy mess will freeze ugh!
