MY OWN SNOW WATCH SATURDAY & SUNDAY, MEANING I AM WATCHING THE POSSIBILITY OF A COVERAGE OF SNOW AT ALL ELEVATIONS.
A developing low pressure center Friday overnight will bring likely precipitation into Saturday morning. Surface winds will likely back to the east which may allow temperatures to drop to near freezing. Forecast charts hold temperatures at 36 degrees, holding snow levels near and above 1,000 feet. But, it is possible temperatures will cool. If so, 1-2" of snow at sea level would be possible.
Sunday morning has a better chance of being cold, but moisture is more limited. A dusting of snow looks at least possible at sea level. If so, warming temperatures during the day would quickly melt any snow.
I place the above chances at 50%. Meaning I won't be surprised if it happens or if we just see rain. By the way the snow levels I list, represent the true and consistent snow level in the atmosphere. Saturday's snow level of 1500 feet is the point at which all would be snow - no mix.
