Winter's Last Gasp?

Dare I even say it?  Could there be snow falling by the end of this week?  It's possible!  The relatively mild weather we've had so far this past week will be coming to end towards the end of this week and into this next weekend.  While it's not completely set in stone, it does appear the mercury will be dropping below average with highs potentially struggling to make it out of the 30s as soon as Thursday!

There are, however, a few differences leading up to this weekend.  The European computer model wants to develop a fairly significant canadian high pressure system that would likely block any storm system from reaching the western Great Lakes.  This would keep us dry, but also keep temperatures very chilly Saturday and Sunday.  The GFS and a couple other models are not as strong with the high allowing the next low to move in as early as Friday.  We would be chilly - but not bitterly cold.  We would also likely see a rain/snow mix this weekend. 

Climatologically speaking it is possible to still get snow in April.  Our average snowfall is 1.4".
