Snowfall in the future?? After temps modify milder Sunday, Monday, rain will return during the day and transition to snow Monday night. Snow with the wave of precip, with the artic front that should contain a squall line that can drop a quick 1-2″ and some upslope to follow into Tuesday night. All told, a 3-6″ snowfall event for the Alleghenies looks possible. These numbers will be tweaked as we get closer..

Following that, a brief shot of bitter cold, followed by a modified zonal flow of Pacific air.
