Rapid Changeover Next Two Hours...Thunderstorms...Strong Winds


DO NOT DRIVE THIS EVENING AND TONIGHT UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY.

The snow line will rapidly move to the coastline. In addition, the thunderstorms will pull down colder air helping to change any potential rain to sleet and quickly to snow. The thunderstorms could contain quite a bit of unusual lightning for this time of the year, let alone with snow. Snowfall rates of one to four inches per hour likely! Roads will become impassible.

Strong winds being reported will only get stronger as the storm intensifies. While there are no blizzard warnings, I believe we may be very close or hit the criteria at least somewhere.

The temperatures are now starting to drop and the expected flash freeze is now in progress of developing.
