Saturday's little clipper looks like it will bring some snow showers and stronger squalls (periods of intense snow) in the morning and afternoon.  An inch or two of accumulation is likely (isolated areas could see three), but I don't see a big whoop with this one.  Roads are pretty briny already, and most areas won't get enough snow to stick on the roads and make them treacherous.  

So use caution if you're out and about tomorrow, but it's nothing that'll ruin your plans.  Quite windy, too.  High 30, low 9.

Cold and windy on Sunday with a snow shower or two in the late afternoon (no accumulation).  High 22, low 14.  Wind chills dipping below zero.

It now appears that Monday's potential snowstorm will miss us to the north, giving us only flurries and ushering in another polar vortex, which is a fashionable weather term, but which really just means that it will be super cold, frigid, bitter, thanks a pantload, Canada.  Mostly cloudy and windy; becoming much colder at night.  High 32, low 4.

Pals Richard Dean Anderson (sharing a kiss with a killer whale) and David Hasselhoff. This is from the late 1970s, I think. Both were doctor-portraying heartthrob soap stars who had wider ambitions: R.D.A. played Dr. Jeff Webber on "General Hospital" and The Hoff was Dr. William "Snapper" Foster on "Days of Our Lives." MacGyver (1985) and Knight Rider (1982) were not even a glint in their dreamy eyes.Tuesday actually has the potential to be the most bone-chilling day in this winter of unprecedented, breath-robbing, cruel-and-unusual balls-coldness.  Partly sunny with a high of 12 and a low of -2.  Those a real temperatures.  Not wind chills.  (The wind chills will be slightly below zero during the day, -15 overnight.

Chance of delay Tuesday, 30%

Chance of cancellation Tuesday, 18%

Partly sunny and bitterly cold again (but not as windy) on Wednesday.  High 14, low 0.

Chance of delay Wednesday, 30%

Chance of cancellation Wednesday, 16%

Sunny and cold again on Thursday - high 24, low 14. 

Good news: Friday's potential storm is another miss.  High 30, low 18.

Next weekend looks cloudy and cold with a chance of snow showers on Sunday.  High of 30 on Saturday, then turning windy and actually climbing above freezing for a bit on Sunday.

The next chances of disruptive winter weather will be Tuesday 2/4 and Friday 2/7.  And maybe Monday 2/10.  Temperatures throughout the week will be cold, but not as cold.  Highs in the upper 20s, that sort of thing.

Stay tuned for updates!!
