The name of the game is looking forward to the weekend. After three more mostly sunny and dry days on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, clouds will increase on Saturday along with gusty winds. Then snow will fall on Saturday night and continue on-and-off through Sunday afternoon. My early estimate of snow accumulations is about 2-4 inches on Saturday night with another 1-2 inches on Sunday. This forecast will change over the next few days, but what won't change is my call that Sunday should be the day with the freshest and softest snow. Temperatures will be in the teens on Sunday, so dress warm. There will be another chance of snow around the middle of next week, near the 17th and 18th.
