I don't know if March is planning to come in like a lion.
Right now I still have my hands full with February.
Yes, those are flurries you may be seeing as you peek out the window this a.m.
I first noticed it when I got in the car and noticed a dusting on my windshield. It was flurrying just about all the way in. Don't panic, it wasn't causing any issues on the roads. Actually, the drive in was fairly pleasant.
Unfortunately, that's about as good as it's going to get. We will struggle to hit 30 degrees this afternoon, then the thermometer will plunge once again tonight.
The record low for tomorrow is 9 degrees, set back in 1934. We could break that mark.
We will get a dose of sun Saturday and a high in the mid 30s as we exit February.
I think I can speak for most when I say, 'Good riddance.' This has been one of the coldest, most miserable Februarys I can remember, even if we didn't get all that much snow.
Speaking of which, March is in fact planning to come in like a lion. A snowy one.
That's right, there is some snow and rain in the forecast for Sunday night into Monday morning. The perfect way to start another work week.
Want some good news? Accu-Weather says temperatures will ease later next week and we could threaten 50 degrees by mid-week.
For now, here's the weekend forecast from the National Weather Service:
