November 12 Morning Storms Then Cooler Pattern Settles In

Forecast

Friday November 12

I can’t be the only one who was woken up by wind driven rain against the window. That is ahead of a strong cold front that is passing through the region now. 

I’ve added the live radar widget below (that is what asked for your location).

A few days ago this looked like a rainy day. It will not be. This is just a morning event, which is a signal that weather systems continue to be moving faster than first thought.

But over the next few days we will be stuck in a cooler than normal pattern.  This will bring in snow to the mountains and some additional showers in metro areas 

Note: I am aiming to publish My Winter Outlook by mid day today. I will send it out first via email. Here’s how to get on that list.

Morning Surface Weather

This strong cold front is part of a larger storm that is bringing the first Blizzard of the season to the Great Lakes.  The core of the cold air is often delayed a day or two behind the front. 

We get into the colder air this weekend. Upslope snow showers will mainly prevail in the high mountains. 

 

Radar Snapshot at 6 AM

The line is moving to the east. But the individual cells are riding the south winds and pushing up to the north-northeast.

Wind Shifting

Behind the front and when the rain ends, this shift to NW winds will bring in the start of the cooling.

Saturday Disturbance

An upper level system will enhance a band of showers.

It will be a brief hit of rain in some metro areas, most likely late morning to mid day. But snow showers span the day in the high mountains.
