Meh "Winter Weather" Event Saturday, March 9th, 2019 into Sunday, March 10th, 2019

After quite a pleasant Saturday with ample sunshine and temperatures soaring into the 40's (an indication that spring isn't far away :D) we do have a bit of winter weather to deal with moving into Sunday morning, however, this will not be a big deal as temperatures will quickly go above freezing.

A rather potent low pressure system moving northeast into the upper-Midwest producing significant snow across the upper-Midwest and severe weather across parts of the south will push a warm front towards our area. High pressure to our north will try to lock in some colder air in the lower-levels of the atmosphere which is why we'll start out as some wintry precipitation:

Forecast models do show some decent lift moving into the area towards Sunday morning with 15 units of omega within the snow growth zone. Unfortunately, the temperature profile looks more supportive of sleet with a marginal thermal profile with temperatures several thousand feet up not much above-freezing. Surface temperatures tonight will also struggle to get below-freezing across many spots.

Coldest temperatures will be confined to the extreme northern part of the state and some of these areas may yield a coating of sleet before everything transitions over to rain through Sunday morning. All in all...no big deal.

Don't forget to set those clocks ahead before bed tonight!
