DAYS 1-5 (FEBRUARY 2-6)
Just had a zoom coffee with Punxutawey Phil and now he’s going out to meet his public while I write today’s blog. We agreed that I’ll handle the next 15 days and he can handle the next 4 to 6 weeks. 😉 Let’s get to it! The story is cold this week, but not quite as cold as last week during this 5-day period as we are in a dry pattern through midweek. A disturbance passes by Tuesday night and early Wednesday and may produce a snow showers south of I-90 but for the most part this system looks like a miss. We’ll look to the west for a more formidable clipper-style low pressure area heading our way by Friday, bringing a chance of snow or snow showers. A little more about this chance as we head through the next few days.
TODAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 25-32. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear to partly cloudy. Lows 3-10. Wind diminishes to calm.
TUESDAY: Partly cloudy. Highs 26-33. Wind W up to 10 MPH.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Increasing clouds. A snow shower possible south of I-90 overnight. Lows 12-19. Wind SW up to 10 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. A snow shower possible south of I-90 early. Highs 25-32. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 10-17. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.
THURSDAY: Partly cloudy. Highs 23-30. Wind N up to 10 MPH.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Clouding up. Lows 15-22. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.
FRIDAY: Cloudy with a chance of snow. Highs 23-30. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 7-11)
Watching the potential for a serious cold outbreak on the February 7-8 weekend, then a slight relaxing of the cold thereafter with dry weather followed by the potential for unsettled weather by the end of the period.
DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 12-16)
Some up-and-down temperatures but generally below normal with a couple threats for snow showers from passing disturbances.
P.S. – I just got a message from Phil. Shadow seen – six more weeks of winter ahead! Enjoyyyyyyyy!

Had 3 letters in correct position after 3 guesses and had no clue. It was during letter substitution that I finally saw it. For a common word, I found it to be most difficult. Oh well, I did get it.
Nice description, felt the same way, 5.

Thanks TK !
Thanks, TK.
Does P-Phil take his coffee hot or iced? 😉
Every ground hog I have come across always took their coffee hot. At least that is what I served them. 🙂
Truck Day!!

Thanks, TK.
Analogous to the (modest) autumnal chill that one almost always gets at some point in August, we’ll have a (modest) warm-up next week, which I think can overachieve with the improving sun angle, This doesn’t mean winter’s over, of course, but it will be a blow.
I’m not counting on much snow for the foreseeable future. Actually, I’m not counting on much precipitation of any kind for the foreseeable future. We are in a VERY dry period, which doesn’t bode well for brush fire season. Don’t be fooled by all the snow you see around you, it’s been and continues to be quite dry.
