Wind whipped snow showers possible into Thursday morning

 After the line of non-severe thunderstorms Wednesday evening, we will see a bit of a lull for a few hours before precipitation rolls back in. Colder air filtering in from the Northwest will flip rain over to a heavy and wet snow late this evening.

Snow showers could last into the early hours of Thursday morning, peaking in coverage and intensity near and shortly after midnight. We could see some heavier bands of snow, significantly limiting visibility as that snow comes down. Snow showers will spread out of the Stateline toward sunrise Thursday morning. Snowfall may accumulate mainly on grassy and elevated surfaces, up to 1-2" could be possible. Similar to Sunday's snow, impacts to roadways will remain limited, unless we see multiple intense bands of snow.

These snow showers will be paired with a stout wind from the North then Northwest. Winds could gust upwards of 35-45 mph at times starting late Wednesday evening and lasting into Thursday morning.

A wind advisory will go into effect this evening for the entire Stateline for that potential of 45 mph gusts. Winds will begin to ease a bit into Thursday afternoon with a bit more sunshine returning for the second half of the day. Temperatures will only rebound to around 40°.
