4/2- Nice Easter ahead...it's getting there that's the problem

Good Thursday all (though it may as well be Friday!)

Today is going to be one of the best days of the year so far! Temperatures will reach the mid-50s today, and perhaps even be a bit above average! The problem lies tomorrow and Saturday, when a front immediately followed by a large low pressure system moves through. The snow threat is gone with this, as the models stopped trending south...but there is now a >25% chance of 1"+ of rain...so the STORM WATCH remains for that reason...and shall almost undoubtedly remain until we get through. The storm is gone by Saturday afternoon though...and Easter itself looks cold, with scattered flurries and showers around. Next week looks to feature some snow on Tuesday...and perhaps some more near the end of the week, though that's WAY out. Don't worry too much about that yet though, as it's a long shot to be anything significant.

If that doesn't pan out, we may be done with snow this winter at long last. There are signs of the pattern really breaking down by mid month, and that is key to ending this months-long cold disaster.
