Details

A series of fronts are expected to move across the Interior on Sunday and Monday. The initial front on Sunday will bring a band of snowfall across the area. With this first front, light snow accumulations are expected.

The next front moving across the Interior on Monday will be accompanied by warmer temperatures, which could bring the potential for a light rain/snow mix in the valleys and moderate snow amounts across higher elevations. This could lead to slick travel conditions, especially during the overnight hours Monday night into Tuesday when the temperatures could drop below freezing once again.

Accompanying the second front will be a period of gusty winds across the higher elevations. This could bring some blowing snow concerns Monday night/Tuesday morning, which could reduce visibility to one mile or less.
