Milder but also very active weather in the next seven to ten days! Please relax, though, folks. I am getting tired of hearing everyone heralding the storm of storms next weekend. Yes, something big is on the models. But something big is on the models 70% of the time that we wind up with nothing. That being said, indications are for a very active first couple of weeks of February, so buckle your belt.
Things to watch out for in the next 7 to 10 days:
1) A potential round of very light but potentially nuisance-travel causing snow late Friday night into very early Saturday morning as a weak system passes to the north;
2) A showery but innocuous weekend;
3) A potential storm mid next week (which could be an ice maker ... concerning);
4) And that potential bigger storm after that.
5) Also, a little storm that could skim southern regions of the Monsoon Mike coverage area late this coming Sunday into Monday ... one of those "surprise" little storms, but I think "most" of the "surprise" will be well south of Skook.
So there you have it folks. The first week or two of February will be slightly milder. But NOT calmer.
