Regional ViewMilder temps will finally make a come back to the Upper Midwest for this week as temps rise into the 20s and 30s for the first time in some time. A weak system will ride along a front bringing minor accumulations to Minnesota and Wisconsin on Friday which will also be the warmest day.
Local View
Locally we can expect mild temperatures for what is expected time of year for the next 3 forecast days. I'm going with partly cloudy skies Wednesday with because of the sun we should see mid to possibly upper 20s for highs. The only chance at precipitation being snow from a system late Thursday and Friday. There will me minor accumulations of 1-3" See latest map issue above. Light snow will probably be on and off through Friday morning with the moderate snow coming to an end overnight. At this same time the front/system which will bring us this snow will sweep up some mild temperatures, Highs in the upper 20s to low 30s are expected for Friday, but if we can get into some more sunshine Friday afternoon mid 30s could be there, but that does not look likely. Night time lows will be well into the teens above zero every night, even warming to the 20s for night lows come Friday!
Wednesday, Partly Cloudy, with highs in the mid to upper 20s, light winds. Wednesday Night mostly cloudy, lows in the mid 10s.
Thursday, Cloudy with chance at light snow in the afternoon. Highs in the upper 20s. Thursday Night, Light to moderate snow possible snow total 1-3", otherwise cloudy, lows in the upper 10s.
Friday, Cloudy with light snow coming to an end early then mostly cloudy. Total accumulation ranging from 1-3" Highs in the upper 20s to low 30s. Friday Night, Cloudy with lows in the low 20s
Looking Ahead
There are a few changes to the looking ahead forecast from last couple of days issue. Following our mild Friday, Saturday will bring a chance of light snow, then much colder conditions immediately follow that system for Sunday and it drys out. It looks dry for the rest of that weekend into the early part of next week until Tuesday when there will be a chance for light snow, behind this system, the models continue to keep a a deep arctic airmass plowing in from the north, highs may not be above zero with this airmass and it could be similar to our last one for lows. Warmer conditions arrive for Friday February 5th with the chance for light snow once again. Then the models trend at a warmer airmass moving in for Sunday the 6th with a better chance at snow. The models continue a warmer and much snowier pattern by the time we reach February 10th. I suspect this forecast will completely change by next forecast issue, so keep up to date.
