Enjoy the warm air we have it won’t last much longer. Long range models showing an Arctic blast on its way… Will be starting next week, however the coldest air is forecasted to move into the area later next week and into next weekend…. This cold air is forecasted to last right through the end of the month…..
The coldest air thus far this winter still looks to be on tap for later next week/weekend… Very cold air has been building over the Arctic and Siberian … At this point there still looks to be no big snow storms in the forecast… Just a few system riding down on the Northwest flow…Should see less than an inch with each system…
Tonight through next Wednesday ..
There will be a chance of light snow/flurries from time to time… Temps will be rather warm compared to what we will be having after this time frame, more on this in a few….Highs through this forecast cycle should range from 10 to 14 above zero… Lows will range from 1 to 16 below… The 16 below coming this Saturday night…..
Now we come to the point we talk about the, finger numbing, pipe busting, and battery draining cold temps.(13th through 18th)
Here’s the setup we will a rather strong low pressure system to our East/Northeast…Meanwhile a strong Arctic High pressure system is forecasted to build into the area…Northwesterly to Northerly winds will allow for the coldest temps thus far this winter….. Looking at other setups from other years… We find that we could have a chance at breaking some records lows and record cold highs…. Hard to pin point down where the coldest air will setup… As of right now does look like must of MN and WI will be home for this cold blast… Lows could easy fall into the 30s to 40s below zero.. With highs from 20 to 15 below zero some place close to the FA if not the FA…
We will have more details on this as we head closer to the time frame….
