10PM Update

Overall picture remains largely unchanged for tomorrow.
Anticipating snow to develop during the late morning. Temperatures are still expected to be in the 20's so snow should have no trouble sticking to all surfaces. A coating is possible by noon. Accumulations could approach an inch by 3pm. Steady snow should persist through about 3pm, with additional snow possible through 7pm. Any additional late afternoon should be less than an inch with storm totals being between one and two inches.

Given the current forecast, there is a moderate probability of an early dismissal tomorrow. Kingston averages just one or two early dismissals per year. The one thing that will be monitored overnight is the potential for dry air. Sometimes with weaker storms, dry air at the ground can evaporate snow as it falls. In some cases this can delay snow onset times. This doesn't seem to be an issue at the moment, but it's worth mentioning in a forecast like this. No promises, but I'll aim for an early morning update tomorrow.


5PM Monday Update

A weak winter storm diving out of Canada will spread light snow over the area on Tuesday. Currently anticipating snow to begin around mid-day …between 10am and 1pm… and continue through the evening. Temperatures will generally be in the low to mid-20s, so snow should be powdery and not have any issue sticking. A coating is possible as early as noon, and totals near 2 inches are currently anticipated by Tuesday night.

The storm trends have been pretty consistent
over the past day or so, so not anticipating significant developments this evening. A 10PM update will be posted.

8PM Saturday Update

Temperatures have been running well above normal this January. As we transition into February we'll see temperatures settle a bit closer to average (mid 30's). Overall, the coming week will be fairly quiet. Tuesday will be the exception with light snow ❄️️ possible as a weak storm system approaches from the northwest. There is the potential for up to an inch or so of accumulation.
