Temperatures Drop…

January 25th, 2010 at 6:13 am by Jamie Jarosik under Weather

Rain fell yesterday and overnight, and we got a nice soaking across the area!  Some spots actually saw an inch or more in rainfall!  Here are some of the rainfall totals, called in by our Weathercheckers:

A few sprinkles will linger early today, but as colder air works in behind our cold front, we’ll see any rain change over to snow by the afternoon.  The best chance for scattered light snow showers will be after 2pm today.   And snow showers are *likely* overnight, as an upper low moves right over us.  This low will provide enough lift to see some light accumulation:

Accumulations will be low, generally an inch or less in most spots.  With overnight lows dipping into the mid-20s… we’ll have the potential for a slick Tuesday morning commute.  Tuesday afternoon also looks colder and unsettled, with lots of clouds and a few light snow showers.  For those of you missing the sunshine, hang in there:  we should see a bit of it Wednesday afternoon!  Temperatures will also moderate a bit on Wednesday, as high pressure builds in:

But the near-normal conditions don’t last long.  Wednesday night into early Thursday, another feature will come through, bringing the chance of snow… and dropping our temperatures.  We will be running below normal as we head into the upcoming weekend.

    Being from Florida, I could completely by-pass winter and be happy :) My body has been craving the sun lately!
