Winter Weather Advisory

Friday, February 3, 2012

Dry Beautiful spring like weather continues through Midweek 40s and 50s likely through Monday, then cooler down closer to normal for Tuesday, but still dry.

Regional weather view.

Split and kind of up side down weather pattern across the Upper Midwest for the weekend, warmth and sunshine will be found in the north, while the south will be cooler and getting some snowfall with minor accumulations across Iowa and Illinois. Everyone will be thrown back into the mild pattern by Monday. It will be dry as well.

Local and metro views.

Really the only story that will be continuing across our area will be the continued lack of winter and dry weather as we are expected a very nice weekend and start to next week! all 3 days will at least reach the 40s with lows in the mid 20s. Saturday will have the most clouds. While Sunday and Monday will be the warmest with more sunshine expected both days. Sunday should be in the middle 40s, and with the snow cover nearly completed and rising sun angle I would not be surprised if some spots surpassed 50.F espesscailly on Monday if we have plenty of sun! Tuesday a cold front will push through the area unfortunately dry. It will bring in temperatures closer to normal in the upper 20s and lows in the 10s.








Saturday, Partly to mostly cloudy, Mild, highs in the low 40s. Saturday Night, Partly Cloudy, lows in the mid 20s.

Sunday, Partly Cloudy and nice!, Highs in the mid 40s. Sunday Night, Partly Cloudy, lows in the mid to upper 20s.

Monday, Partly Cloudy, Very Nice! Highs in the upper 40s to low 50s. Monday Night, Partly Cloudy, lows in the low 20s.

Tuesday, Much cooler, Increasing clouds and a bit breezy. Highs in the upper 20s to low 30s. Tuesday Night, Clear skies, lows in the mid 10s.


Looking Ahead

It looks dry all through next week with near normal temps, The cool down does not last long becuase by next weekend were warming right back up. Actually the model keeps things fairly dry and mild all the way through the 19th of the month. I have trouble believing that this will stay the case, but by how this Winter has been its not surprising
