Cold Persists, Snow Chance Increase

The main purpose for this blog update is to mention the snow possibility for Monday as it has moved into the 5 day forecast.

A series of short wave troughs will move through the area during the next few days which will help keep the cold air well intrenched. One of these short waves affects the area tomorrow, however it will be moisture starved. A few snow showers can be expected in the afternoon. Surface high pressure builds in behind the shortwave for Friday, so dry and cold weather can be expected.

The next short wave will affect the area Sunday night into Monday. This is the one to watch as this one will have Gulf of Mexico moisture to work with.

A front will pass the region from north to south on Sunday and will stall to our south. The question is where does it stall as that is where an area of low pressure will track. Since the frontal boundary will be to our south, we will be in the cold air which will support snow. I hope to update as soon as possible once I have a better idea.
