Glop, slop, snow and sleet back in the forecast |
January 4, 2018 |
Yucky weather is on its way back to the region,
with glop, slop, snow and sleet in the daily
forecast for the next eight days. As of 2:10
p.m. Today, radar showed areas of frozen mix
coming down in Boundary County, but more is
coming.
At this time, ice accumulations over the next
several days look to be a light glazing, with
the most significant potential impact to travel
on Friday morning.
For the first time in days, temperatures are
expected to be above freezing Friday and Friday
night in Bonners Ferry, with thermometers
staying right in the mid 30s, but it comes with
a 50-percent chance of a slushy, snowy mix, a
chance that increases to near 100-percent Friday
night, turning to mostly snow by early Saturday.
The snow level climbs to 5,000 feet during the
day on Friday.
As we go into the day on Saturday, the snow will
turn back to a frozen mix as temperatures rise
to the upper 30s in Boundary County, with a
70-percent chance of precipitation decreasing
again to 50-percent, and turning to snow, on
Saturday night and into Sunday.
Daytime highs stay in the mid to upper 30s
through Tuesday, but nighttime temps drop back
below freezing in the upper 20s to low 30s
Sunday night.
Mushy, sloppy weather with a mix of stuff
falling drops off to 30 percent on Friday,
January 12, but it may be a bit longer than that
before we see the sun again. |
