Weather is one of the most fascinating things in the world... well... to me! It's amazing how we can go from 3"-10" of snow to severe weather. All in one week!!!!!

We started this week off with snow and cold and it looks like we will make a run at 65+ for highs and even some strong or even severe storms. That's for Thursday and Friday still has potential for at least a few flakes! Maybe snow showers... it's a toss up at this point!

Here's the highlighted area for severe weather according to the SPC.

The possibilities of strong winds, large hail, and tornadoes exists with this system!

The graphic above will keep you up to speed with the latest changes to the severe weather threat!

As for snow behind this system... I just don't think it will materialize into much! We could see some... so keep that in mind!
