Snow flurries possible - cold and feeling colder!

This is winter! Feels like it and acting like it. This year's dominating force will be the La Nina episode which reminds me of 2 things! Cold and desert like for precipitation. I also expect that December may end up as the coldest month of the winter season. We will see hints of winter storms, but models will not handle the pattern well and that is what happened with what I thought could be the first storm of the winter season. The Lion turned into a lamb as a clipper system now looks like it will scoot even south of VA making flurries and light snow showers possible in NC. That storm will get its act together once in the ocean and do nothing but bring very cold winds to the region. Highs will struggle out of the 30s most of next week with wind chills in the 20s! Find the scarf and hats!

So daily
- 40s region wide today and even some flurries scattered across central VA.
- Saturday will see high mid 30s to mid 40s with increasing clouds. Showers and snow showers possible in the SW portion of VA and western NC,
- Saturday night will feature scattered snow showers across the central regions of VA and north half of NC from the mountains to the coast!
- Sunday - blustery and cold! Highs likely in the 30s for most, upper 30s south, mid 30s north

Next week - Cold 30s to continue - possibly a few disturbance causing some snow showers.

Long term, if the models are seeing correctly, we could have an ice/snow threat next weekend.

Mid Atlantic Weather GROWING!

I am on the verge of launching yet another part of the Mid Atlantic Weather network of sights. This will include video and podcasts. This is exciting, but I will tell ya, I am a 1 man team, so do not think it will be spectacular! It will be as amateur as it gets! More to come on this.

All for now!
