Let’s hope this is winter’s LAST punch. We have 2 storm systems heading our way for the upcoming Easter weekend. Storm #1 will affect the area on Thursday with generally LIGHT snow throughout the area with around 2-4″ before it winds down Thursday evening. Here’s a look at some of our models forecasts for storm #1:
As you see, majority of the F/M area will see 2-4″ with some 5″ amounts possible through Thursday evening. We will see a break in the snow from Thursday night into Friday noon before the 2nd stronger storm pulls out of the Rockies and dumps heavier snow across the area. Here is a look at snow TOTALS from both storms combined ending Saturday afternoon…..my thinking for the F/M area is a GRAND TOTAL of around 7-11″
WINTER STORM WATCHES have been issued for the Valley into Lakes Country for Friday afternoon into Saturday afternoon.
