Very Un-Springlike

Showers come to an end pretty quickly this afternoon, but not before a few flurries fall as well. Mild temperatures this morning gave way to briskly-falling temperatures around 10am as highs occurred early and biting winds increased from the northwest. Skies clear this evening, with a clear, cold night ahead. Most places will receive a hard freeze, with lows by sunrise Wednesday in the 20s. After a sunny daytime, more frost is likely late Wednesday night and Thursday morning. Temperatures will moderate going into next weekend, however.

Forecast Discussion

A strong cold front knifed across the mountains late this morning continuing east of the foothills early this afternoon. Showers will continue off-and-on until through early to mid afternoon, even a few flurries, then clearing commences late in the afternoon or early evening.

High temperatures occurred first thing this morning before falling quickly after the front went by. Under clear skies tonight, winds will be diminishing, and most places will have a hard freeze by daybreak Wednesday. Skies will be sunny on Wednesday, but with high pressure overhead Wednesday night, another frosty sunrise is expected for your Thursday.

Temperatures will moderate thereafter, although scattered valley frost will again be possible at daybreak Friday. A weak weather system will spread more clouds in by Friday or Friday night, but no measurable rainfall is expected. In fact, the weekend looks quite nice as temperatures moderate closer to normal along with a good portion of sunshine. Another weather system will bring a little bit better chance for rain by late Monday or Monday night.
