<< Good evening, I'm Meteorologist
Robin Reed in the SkyTracker7 Forecast
Center. A solid shield of moisture will
slide into the region Thursday night.
Clouds will continue to lower and
thicken. Temperatures will fall through
the 30s and into the mid 20s.
Initially, the atmosphere will be cold
enough to support snow showers late
Thursday evening, however, as warmer
air moves in aloft, snow showers will
change to sleet and then freezing rain
by Friday morning. One (possibly two
inches) of a snow/sleet accumulation is
possible through Friday morning. As


freezing rain develops, watch your
morning commute. Roads and sidewalks
could become slick - and it doesn't
take much ice to cause big problems!
Like the last couple of systems we've
dealt with this winter, this won't be a
prolonged event. After a cold start to
Friday with freezing rain, temperatures
will warm above freezing, meaning a
plain cold rain is expected for the
rest of the day. Get the latest
weather forecast and radar imagery

to advance to Saturday's title game at

nail the three.


LCA will work the perimiter as
