We’ll see a strong cold front sweep across the area late Thursday night into Friday, which will bring much colder temperatures and widespread rain and high-elevation snow. How much snow you ask? Great question! Right now doesn’t look like too much for most of us, but the mountaintops should be white after this one. Stay tuned – we’ll have more details tomorrow as our forecast continues to evolve.”
