FCST: 1/6-7/10 Snow and Arctic air

Models are fairly consistent in bringing a potentially significant snow storm into the local area on Wednesday.  In addition, with the northwesterly flow VERY cold arctic air will follow the system with some operational models and sounding model data predicting teens to twenties below zero for actual air temperatures with wind chill values approaching forty below zero!  This week's weather should be watched very carefully!  It is still to early to say if this storm will come into fruition, but with the significant winter weather we had in December we need to be prepared!  More on the blog as the models get a better handle on the forecasted track and strength of the storm!  For now, enjoy the first of many short wave disturbances that is going to give us some "nuisance" snow accumulations over the next 24 hours. ~ CS
