Remaining Cold
Seasonably cold temperatures continue through Monday and more festive flurries are possible tonight and early tomorrow morning. Perhaps the bigger story is a moderating trend that gets underway Tuesday and holds for the remainder of the work week. It's not overwhelming, but temperatures get back to seasonal levels or a tad better after this cold snap.

Forecast Discussion
Today is chilly under partly sunny skies. Another slug of upper level energy passes through tonight and Monday with flurries possible overnight and first thing Monday morning.
A clipper-type low scoots through to our north Tuesday night bringing a very modest cold front with it. You won't even notice the difference other than a gusty wind Tuesday night and the westerly flow ahead of the front actually promotes some good warming Tuesday afternoon.
It gets much more complicated thereafter with varying degrees of computer guidance uncertainty. For now, we'll stick with the going theme of low pressure moving across the Southeast Thursday. A brief wintry mix is possible at onset early Thursday morning before transitioning to rain. Rain ends late Thursday night. If that doesn't come to fruition then it will be dry Wednesday through Friday. The next wet weather maker is in the wings a week from now.
