Supersnow Sunday

We’ll stay mostly sunny with temps in the upper 30s to low 40s for the rest of Thursday. Becoming breezy with a low overnight of 27. Friday morning expect a mix of rain and freezing rain as warm moist air wedges in from the southwest. Precipitation will gradually change to all snow as the day progresses. Look for 4-6 inches of snow Friday night with an additional 3-5 inches of accumulation Saturday. Friday’s changeover to snow will occur much faster to the north and east of Morgantown. In fact, that warm air mass may not even reach much farther east than Bruceton Mills, so portions of southern PA, Western MD, northern VA and the eastern panhandle of WV will likely experience mostly snow and could come away with 12-16+ inches through Saturday. Snow will finally begin to taper off Saturday night as this storm moves east and continues to produce heavy snow far off the Atlantic coast. Nighttime lows through the weekend will dip well into the teens and could reach single digits by Sunday night. Although the snow and heaviest winds will have died down well before kickoff on Sunday, wind chill will still be a factor worth considering when venturing outside. Conditions remain dry as temperatures Monday will trend back towards average for this latitude. However, more snow looms on the horizon for Tuesday and Wednesday of next week. The complexity of this weekend’s forecast warrants continued observation and accuracy should increase with time, so stay tuned for updates and inevitable winter weather warnings and advisories!
