Justin Liles: Another Cold Night, Snow Wednesday

While one round of snow is wrapping up another one sits just on the horizon. The northland saw a quick moving clipper system stroll through earlier today, creating some rather less than ideal driving conditions. A surface high will move into tonight and clear the clouds our some. This will allow temperatures to radiate a lot of energy back into the atmosphere.

Overnight lows are expecting to be in the low single digits for most areas with communities up north dropping well below zero again. Round two of snow arrives overnight, slick am travel through early afternoon is expected Wednesday. This time the snow appears to track farther south and once again because it is a clipper, a quick 1-3” is possible. There is a small stripe from Bayfield county to northern Pine county that may see 3-5” of snow due to a gravity wave bouncing off the north shore.

Temperatures will begin to warm up as we head through the remainder of the week and into the weekend. There is a chance of light snow on Saturday and then again Sunday night into Monday. Winds will looks to pick up late Sunday into Monday too. Next week is looking a little more active than what we will see the rest of the week.
