Your Local Forecast
Meteorologist Jim Buchanan - Friday, February 3rd - 3:30pm
We closed out another work week with ample sunshine and above normal temperatures. A low pressure system will track to our south over the weekend, keeping almost all precipitation south of the forecast region. Some cloud cover may blanket the southern portion of the region from this system, however, some forecast models are still suggesting a mix of rain and wet snow for a brief period but will only impact the most southern edge of our region. High pressure returns along with sunshine by Monday.
Here are the specifics on the forecast. On Saturday, cloud cover will begin to increase throughout the morning and into the afternoon ahead of a low pressure system that is set to track to our south over the course of the weekend. Forecast highs will once again climb to above normal values and reach the mid to upper 40s. Some scattered light precipitation may pass through the region (if it tracks far enough north) late in the day, though with mild temperatures and low relative humidity, most precipitation should fall as rain and actually evaporate before reaching the surface.
Super Bowl Sunday will see mostly overcast skies with a slight potential for light precipitation over the extreme southern portion of the forecast area. Temperatures will once again be mild, making it hard for any light snow to accumulate fast enough before melting. Forecast highs will be close to normal, near 40 degrees. Clouds will begin to depart Sunday night as high pressure build in from the west taking control of the weather early next week. Monday, high pressure returns and be in control for most of the week, providing mostly sunny skies and dry conditions. Forecast highs will once again return to above normal values reaching the mid 40s. Tuesday, warmer air aloft along with a slight increase in moisture near the surface will produce a high, thin cloud deck. A cold front will pass late in the day with little moisture associated with it. We may see some brief passing low level clouds and perhaps a sprinkle or two. Forecast highs will once again run in the mid 40s ahead of the front. Temperatures behind the front will be closer to normal on Wednesday, topping off in the upper 30s.
High pressure will settle in once again and remain until late in the week. Temperatures will quickly return to above normal values ahead of the next low pressure system expected to move up along or near the coast by next weekend. This system, along with another following close behind around Valentine's Day are both worth keeping an eye on to see what form of precipitation may fall.
