Tons of ground covered in today's video with a thorough look at the current very impressive blast of arctic air as well as the possibility of a snow-producing system Tuesday night into Wednesday. See today's video:

Highs today will be in the mid 30s for most in the piedmont. However, another blast of arctic air will buckle in here by tonight, and lows tonight will head down into the 8-12 degree range by tomorrow morning for many. The wind will still be a factor as well, and therefore, wind chill values tomorrow morning will likely dip below zero for a period of time for some. Up in the mountains, I anticipate widespread wind chills between -20 and -30 later tonight and tomorrow morning. Brutal stuff. 

Highs tomorrow will only warm into the mid and upper 20s in spite of a sunny sky, and I anticipate teens for lows again Saturday morning.

We will see a slight reprieve from the arctic air this weekend, but nothing 'warm' by any means. Highs Saturday through Monday will head into the 40s.

Another big blast of arctic air will then invade the region again by Tuesday. In fact, the Canadian is very aggressive with the amount of cold air with that one. Thereafter, there are some signs of the cold pattern relaxing a bit toward next week.

Cold with impressive staying power....

>> Wednesday, January 22, 2014

After a little snow in many areas yesterday evening and last night, the cold air has overwhelmed the region. Highs in the piedmont will range from the upper 20s to lower 30s in spite of plenty of sun.

Another shot of cold air... one that is even slightly colder than our current blast, will arrive tomorrow night and Friday. Some spots east of the mountains might even have single digit lows Friday morning.

The staying power of this pattern is very impressive. In fact, I continue to see good indications of continued blasts of cold air for quite a while to come. Please see the video for more....

Nice today.... much different starting tomorrow...

>> Monday, January 20, 2014

Picture-perfect weather out there today for this holiday Monday with sunshine and highs in the upper 50s and lower 60s. Enjoy... it won't last.


Our next disturbance moves in tomorrow. This will bring a nice snow event to the mountains as well we a good chunk of the Virginias. For NC outside of the mountains, a few areas of light rain are possible initially with the system, but as the cold air deepens, some light snow or snow showers will be possible, especially the farther north and northeast in the state you are. For areas from roughly I-40 points north, a dusting to maybe at most 1" is possible....more is possible in northeast NC. Even in the southern Piedmont, some flakes could fly, but not enough to amount to much. 

A big cold shot then arrives with some piedmont spots having 20s for highs Wednesday. Many spots could see teens for lows each morning Wednesday through Saturday. 

I detail this in the video, but the Canadian model is on an island in producing a healthy winter storm for much of the Southeast Thursday night and Friday. See the video for more...
