Forecast Discussion
Yesterday saw a daily record high of 38F which broke the previous record of 37F set in 1981. The summit also received a lot of rain which has turned the snow pack up here into one large sheet of ice with a dusting of snow and rime on top. Additional snow will be added to this ice pack as a secondary cold front drops southeastward today. The first cold front passed yesterday afternoon dropping temperatures dramatically from that new high. Today as the cold front passes, colder air will continue to flow in from northwest reinforcing the cold air already in place. Winds will also once again be on the increase for the overnight hours. As a result of the cold and windy conditions, a wind chill advisory will be issued from this afternoon through tomorrow. For tomorrow, low pressure will skirt by to our south possibly spreading a few snow showers northward in the morning hours before high pressure slowly begins to build in over the northeast. Between the systems, upslope flow will continue fog and the chance for an occasional snow shower into tomorrow. Any new snow will also be whipped up since there really isnâ€Öt a surface it can bond to yet. Wind chills today will start 20-30 below falling to 30-40 below by sunset and falling to 40-50 below by sunrise tomorrow where it will remain through the day.
