Tracking a few opportunities for snowflakes to fly this week

A strong cold front diving in will bring the Stateline its next chance to see some flakes fly. Yes, even though we're in April, we could still see precipitation fall in the form of snow as cold air lingers. 

The highest chance will be before midday, with some of the strongest snow showers lowering visibility for a short time. Once the front is to our south, dry but breezy conditions settle in for the afternoon. Winds being chilly out of the north and northwest, leaving afternoon highs near the 40° mark.

Skies will clear overnight as high pressure sinks down from the north. This, along with lighter winds, will make for a chilly start to our Tuesday, leaving overnight lows in the low to mid 20s. 

The chill will persist into Tuesday afternoon. Despite there being a little more sunshine, afternoon highs will be limited to the low 40s. 

 

Clouds cover will increase Tuesday night as our next weather maker approaches. By Wednesday morning, scattered rain showers will become likely, with a few flakes mixing in from time to time. Forecast models bring the associated low across the I-80 corridor during peak-heating hours, leaving surface winds out of the east. This, along with thick cloud cover staying put for most, if not all of the day, will leave afternoon highs in the low to mid 40s.
