Arctic Air Tracking For Next Tuesday

By Rod Hill on 2020-01-09


ARCTIC AIR IS ON TRACK TO SURGE SOUTHWARD OVER OUR REGION WITH THE MAIN 
PUSH OF COLD ARRIVING DURING THE DAY TUESDAY. 

Moisture patterns next week continue to be uncertain, but the cold and likely developing east
winds are likely.  The coldest American GFS Model (below) shows dew points dropping into 
single digits next Wednesday.  Notice the potential for lows in the teens and daytime highs
in the 20s.  Clouds, snow and east winds would possibly lead to warmer numbers, but it is
going to get cold!  First chance of even light accumulations on the valley floor is Monday night - 
Tuesday morning.  Next Wednesday night through Thursday night warrants watching for a 
possible snowstorm event.  Well below normal temps show up a times through the end of 
January.
