Looking Ahead:
Weekend temperatures should stay in the 40s range, and partly cloudy conditions will likely continue to dominate. Winds will continue to stay light and variable.
Discussion:
How possible would it be for us to see some snow on Friday? Between now and Friday, the exact timing and location of possible winter weather in our area is still variable, so keep a look out for updated forecasts! However, we can consider what ingredients are in place for snow. Temperatures throughout the day on Friday are predicted to be below freezing, which means that it would be cold enough for snow. The low-pressure system that is bringing with it our next chance for snow is coming up from the Gulf Coast, as seen in the picture below. Currently, the snow is predicted to stay to the south of us for a majority of the day, and our best chances for potentially seeing some flurries would be towards the evening.

The predicted location of the low-pressure system (pink circle) and high-pressure system (purple circle) by this evening.
While this low-pressure system is bringing moisture, the high-pressure system to the north of us is supplying drier air into our area. This dry air would limit the low-pressure system and snow from trekking further northward to us, as it limits the amount of overrunning of warm over cold air. Ultimately, our chances for seeing snow depends on how far north the high-pressure system moves by the time the low-pressure system comes into our area on Friday.
That’s all for today. Have a great day, Terps!
