Morning Express – Monday, November 20

A bright and dry Monday to start the week, but by the end of it we could be seeing several centimeters of snow. The fun starts on Tuesday with rain showers, transitioning to wet snow then snow. In total about 10cm could fall overnight Tuesday into Wednesday. Winds will also pick up on Tuesday giving us a chance of snow squalls for Wednesday into Thursday. Not al forecast models are in agreement with this forecast, so for now it’s still “iffy” at the moment. What is for certain, are cold, windy and cloudy days ahead.
