LWX bumped the entire area into “Enhanced” on Day 5. And here’s their latest disco:
.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
High pressure overhead will keep us dry and chilly Saturday. As
the northern fringe of this high departs toward the northeast,
the southern half will wedge along the eastern slopes of the
Appalachians. This will likely keep cold air in place ahead of a
developing low pressure system that could bring us a mix of
rain and snow or all snow later in the weekend. Clouds will
increase Saturday night before thickening with precipitation
arriving Sunday.
As of now, the precipitation looks to arrive as some light snow
late Saturday night into early Sunday from southwest to
northeast. As an easterly flow increases ahead of the main storm
system, we throw a factor of rain into the precipitation type
mixture. By late Sunday evening and continuing Sunday night and
through midday Monday, the easterly flow gradually becomes more
northerly. This is due to a coastal low pressure system forming
near the Outer Banks and intensifying as it moves toward the
northeast.
By Monday night and into Tuesday, precipitation should taper
off and end slowly from west to east as the coastal low moves
away and high pressure becomes reestablished in the region.
Temperatures will be near average during the lifetime of the
storm system.
