A warm front, or the leading edge to milder air, is poised to move through today. Before the front arrives, however, milder air will ride up and over the relatively cool air that is over us. This will cause a few spotty morning showers of freezing drizzle and light snow in higher elevations. Most are forecast to stay dry, but roads will be slick to start the day, especially on bridges and overpasses.
The warm front will keep moving to our northeast tomorrow and our warm up will continue. By Sunday, our winds will turn into the southwest and that should warm us even more. This wind and milder air is ahead of a cold front and as the cold front approaches us we are expecting some showers, especially in the afternoon.
Thereafter, the front may briefly sag south later Sunday into Monday. This would result in the threat for a few showers as well as perhaps slightly cooler air Monday. Then, in response to a developing Mid-west storm, the front is forecast to lift back north yet again as a warm front Tuesday. This would mean even warmer temperatures are possible Tuesday with highs reaching well into the 50s to near 60.
The threat for showers will likely increase Tuesday afternoon as a cold front works into the region. Behind the front, a return to (seasonably) colder air will return as well as the threat for snow showers.
