Snow Blind

Morgantown and surrounding areas managed to escape with only an inch or so of snow this weekend. Heavier snowfall amounts did indeed materialize further south. For tonight, skies remain clear with lows around 19. Although we'll contend with some winter weather, temperatures this week will begin to warm up a bit as a southwest flow brings in warmer air. Daytime highs thru the week will be in the upper 30s and may touch 40 by midweek. Monday will be dry & mostly sunny with a high of 36. Clouds increase Tuesday and there’s a slight chance of rain/snow mix after dark Tuesday. A weak front brings wintry mix but produces minimal accumulation, just enough to be bothersome getting to work Wednesday morning. Thursday expect dry conditions, partly cloudy skies and a high in the lower 40s. A stronger system will deliver more winter weather in time for the weekend. This will likely begin with a rain/snow mix Friday and change to all snow by Saturday. We’ll gradually begin to clear out again on Sunday. Will keep an eye on that system for next weekend and post updates through the week!
