Forecast update…snow lovers look away

Current Weather Map
An area of low pressure continues to develop over eastern Texas and is expected to move eastward today before beginning to move to the northeast and off the Carolina coast tomorrow.

After watching the models shift the storm track north yesterday morning, all of the models began shifting the track back to the south through the day, and last night, shifted far enough south to miss the state completely.

About that possible snow storm…

Current Weather Map
Today will be mostly sunny with highs in the low 50s. Expect more of the same tomorrow, with increasing clouds during the afternoon.

Now, on to the big weather story. Overnight, the models that had been showing the storm staying further south have shifted the storm north, while the models that were bringing it further north have shifted to the south. As you know with these systems, the exact track is impossible to determine at this point and any shift at all in the track has a drastic impact on the weather for our area.

Sunny today, slight chance of rain/snow tomorrow

High pressure remains in control today, providing sunny skies and highs in the low to mid 40s. The high will move off the coast tonight as an area of low pressure moves in from the west.

Light rain/snow tonight and tomorrow

Current weather map
A cold front will approach the state tonight, while a low pressure system currently over the south interacts with the front and redevelops off the south east coast. The low will track northeast, off the coast but will be close enough to bring light rain and snow to the area tonight and tomorrow. Expect light rain to develop across the state tonight, transitioning to snow from west to east as the night progresses. The rain/snow will continue through the day tomorrow, before ending tomorrow evening. An inch or two of snow is possible in the mountains, elsewhere, little to no accumulation is expected.
