Strong winds will bring in much colder weather for the midweek. Northwest gusts over 40 mph are likely Tuesday night into Wednesday after a cold front passes. The temperature will plummet into the 20s by dawn on Wednesday.
It will be mostly sunny and cool on Thursday. Look for highs near 40. The temperature will dip into the 20s again Thursday night. An approaching storm system may bring rain and/or snow on Friday afternoon and night. It seems fitting after this winter that there may be snowflakes flying as spring arrives Friday evening. Accumulating snow is possible, but there is still uncertainty about the track and intensity of the storm. The track of the storm will be very important because there will not be too much cold air in place. The best chance of accumulating snow is after sunset on Friday and before dawn on Saturday.
Looking ahead to the weekend, Saturday should become partly sunny with highs in the 40s. Another cold front will pass through with rain/snow showers possible early Sunday, followed by more unseasonably cold weather.
