2/21 update

Good morning and happy Friday!

The afternoon today could be very wild, with pouring rain, and possibly strong thunderstorms! It is very unusual to see this in February, but the culprit is a very powerful cold front that is going to drop temps down to near normal levels on Sunday, while leaving them fairly warm for tomorrow in the mid-40s. Today is the warmest day in many months, with temps pushing 50 in some areas today as well! It will feel nice for sure, but the melting snow could well cause some problems tomorrow morning as temps drop below freezing this evening. The next chance for any noteworthy snow is Wednesday, however a few snow showers are possible on Monday. Weds. doesn't look truly huge but it looks at least significant enough to cause problems. More trouble could be brewing for next weekend (March 1/2) but that is way too far off to even discuss at the present time. Happy weekend and, for some, happy Feb. break!

Today in weather history- February 21, 1918- The temperature in Granville, ND skyrockets from morning lows of -33 to over 50 degrees by afternoon thanks to ridiculously strong warm wind.
