We have a chance of seeing flurries or even some light snow showers early Thursday morning. This is not going to be a big snow storm at all, but with nothing else going on weather wise I figured it would be prudent to mention it. This won’t be even close to the amount of snow we saw after Christmas. Basically you can expect snowflakes in the air with a small chance of a light coating/dusting of snow in some neighborhoods. It’s plenty cold to stick, but there just isn’t much moisture available. Here’s an estimated radar image for tomorrow morning at 9AM showing a few light snow showers around Salem.

The snow showers will move in around 4 or 5AM and by 10 or 11 we will be done already. This is a very weak system.

Things clear up once we get through the morning. Temps will drop back below freezing Thursday after dark for another chilly night.

Friday will finally feel a bit milder with highs getting close to 50°. Saturday should be dry through the evening as well before rain moves in Sunday.

That takes us into next week, which at this time is looking quite wet with several storm systems moving through the region. Enjoy these last few dry days – even if they are freezing cold, and keep an eye out for a few morning snow flurries. 🙂
