Big Snow...Big Chill

Good Evening!

After a clear, cold day in Jackson, the clouds have rolled in once again, and they will bring an intense storm to the area starting late tomorrow afternoon or tomorrow evening, and going through at least Sunday evening.  After that, some of the coldest temperatures we have seen in some years will invade the area.  Let's take a deeper dive and see what we have cooking.

BIG TIME SNOW SETTING UP - Multiple forecast models are indicating several inches of snow possible starting tomorrow night.  Upwards of a foot of snow A low pressure center coming out of the southern Plains looks to make a hard left shortly after the Mississippi river and track northeast, gaining strength all the while.  6 to 12 inches of snow is possible along and south of I-96.  I should be able to refine those amounts tomorrow.  It will start snowing and not stop until Monday fromhat I see right now, and then after that...

 IT'S ALREADY COLD - HOW BAD WILL IT GET? -  All of the forecast data I have seen keeps us in sub-zero daytime HIGHS on Monday, with single digits somewhere in the forecast until Thursday, and I'm a bit less than optimistic that we'll see double digit positive highs and lows even then!  Wind chills look to be in excess of 20 below zero.

Here's the forecast:



Details on the storm and the bitter cold behind it later.  Have a good night!
