Low Chance of Light Snow Monday

Today’s rain storm was initially expected to wash out at least half of our weekend, but over the past couple of days the storm has progressed much quicker than previously modeled, so now the weekend looks pretty good. It will be blustery and chilly, but at least it will be dry. More importantly, because this system is going to be quick to exit the area, it is providing some spacing between another disturbance that will cross the area Monday afternoon. If that system is able to get more organized, then we might be looking at a light snow event across the area Monday afternoon and evening. Right now I think the chances of that are slim for central MD as models currently show areas well-south of DC towards Fredericksburg and Richmond having the best chance of seeing some mixed precipitation or even mangled snow, but the models have been trending in the right direction for us, so we should keep an eye on it. Hopefully we get the “north trend” that we have enjoyed from other snow events in the past, but wherever it ends up snowing, it looks to be a light event.

Finally, don’t forget to enter the Snow Contest which is open for entries and edits until Sunday evening. If you want to do an edit and received an email confirmation of your entry, do the edit there. If you did not receive an email confirmation, enter again and put the word “Edit” in with your name so I can replace your previous entry. Good luck!
