Thursday, October 28th

Good morning! We are starting off rather mild this morning. While initially the NWS called for cooler temperatures today, they have decided that highs today will be between 30 and 40 degrees. The Chinook flow (which they predicted would weaken today) will remain in place much of the day, then weaken this afternoon. Therefore, we should see temperatures falling this afternoon. With the falling temperatures, we will see snow push in from the west overnight tonight. There is the potential for up to 4 inches of snow by tomorrow afternoon.

The seven day outlook has not changed much. It looks as if a cold air mass will slide in here by the middle of next week. If this holds true, we may only see highs in the single digits with lows below zero.
