Today&#8217;s weather will be fairly benign, though breezy, and on the mild side compared to the last few days. Cold front #1 goes by late today with little fanfare, just a wind shift and a modest drop in temperature. Cold front #2 goes by later Friday. This one is an arctic front, and can be accompanied by a snow shower or snow squall, and will introduce the colder air mass of the season so far Friday night into the weekend. Saturday&#8217;s weather is dry but bitterly cold along with wind that will ease up by later on in the day, and sunshine that will be filtered by high cloudiness fanning across the sky in advance of a winter storm that brings a significant snowfall to our region Sunday into Monday. This will take place as a fairly elongated low pressure area passes to our south. There is still a little uncertainty on the exact track of the low, but for our area this just determines the amount of moisture that falls and as a result the amount of snow. The most northernmost potential the low track has would bring some mixing to the South Coast, but I&#8217;m not going with this scenario at this time &#8211; just a straight up significant snowfall for the entire region. Additional details will be posted in comments below as I get more information about this upcoming event, and of course another full discussion will appear with tomorrow morning&#8217;s blog post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TODAY: Partly sunny.
