Light Snow Showers the Next Few Days

The overall pattern remains active for the last few days of February.  Light snow showers are showing up on radar over Wisconsin and Illinois, but very little of that is actually reaching the ground due to dry air in the low levels of the atmosphere.  Actually, over the past couple of hours the snow has been decreasing in overall coverage.

Skies will remain mostly cloudy through the night but a weak disturbance rippling through the flow in the jet stream will allow a few additional light snow showers to develop overnight Monday into Tuesday morning.  A stronger disturbance moves in from the west Tuesday afternoon and this will bring a better chance for snow showers late in the day Tuesday and Tuesday night.  This round of light snow could bring a better chance for  minor accumulations heading into Wednesday morning.

High pressure then briefly moves in Wednesday before another disturbance moves through Thursday with a chance for light snow Thursday afternoon.  A bigger storm system arrives late Friday into Saturday with a couple inches of snow possibly by Saturday afternoon.
