More Spring warmth Tuesday
SYRACUSE, NY (WSYR-TV) – Spring like air sticks around in the short term, but…
At a glance:
- Spring like feel, 50s again Tuesday
- Widespread rain develops by 12-2pm
- Turns colder, windier, and snowier Wednesday
- Watching for more snow by Friday
TUESDAY:
Tuesday is breezy and unseasonably mild again. Highs will get back into the mid to upper 50s! However, unlike Monday when it was dry and sunny all day, rain develops by lunchtime and last the rest of the day. It’ll be tough to enjoy the warmth this afternoon.
The warmth and rainfall will again bring the potential for ice jams and minor flooding later Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday. The flooding threat is mainly northeast of Syracuse where the snowmelt ends up greater and the rain heavier.
TUESDAY NIGHT:
It stays breezy and mild Tuesday night with scattered showers and lows near 50.
WEDNESDAY:
Don’t be fooled by the mild start to Wednesday, because after starting near 50 around daybreak temperatures will free fall back through the 40s and into the 30s and possibly upper 20s by sunset. A gusty west-northwest wind picks up, producing wind chills in the teens and low 20s!
Our advice to all heading to work early in the morning is to make sure you bring your winter jacket/coat because you’ll certainly need it by the time you come home later Wednesday!
Any scattered rain showers to start Wednesday likely change to snow showers/flurries by Wednesday afternoon with maybe a coating to an inch in spots by day’s end.
THURSDAY:
High pressure to the north provides a dry, but chilly Thursday with at least intervals of sun. Highs struggle to get out of the 20s.
LATE WEEK:
Right now, we are watching a moisture laden storm that could very well deposit several inches of snow and or a wintry mix depending on the storm track late Thursday night into Friday.
