Friday's stats:
Low temp: 44.6ºF (7.0ºC)
High temp: 55.2ºF (12.9ºC)
Precipitation: none
Today's high temperature... very mild for the middle of January... occurred during the late morning, before clouds quickly moved in and temperatures fell a few degrees as the afternoon progressed.
We're in for a couple of days of 'waiting' over this weekend, in advance of a significant winter storm system which still appears to be on track to begin moving in either very late Sunday night or Monday. Moderate to heavy precipitation is being forecast by most of the computer models, especially on Monday into early Wednesday... and there is a good chance that much of that could be in the form of snow, near and just up-mountain from us here in McLeod. A much colder airmass will arrive shortly after the precipitation cranks up, so we need to start getting prepared for the possibility of some true winter-time weather around here...
