LONG TERM WED NT-FRI
ANOTHER SFC LOW DEVELOPS ALONG THE SE COAST AND TRACKS NNE. AT THE VERY LEAST…WILL INDICATE CHC POPS DURING THIS PERIOD FOR RAIN…ALTHOUGH SOME WET SNOW COULD BE MIXED IN ACROSS HIGHER ELEVATIONS EARLY THU. THEN …AS MID/UPPER LEVEL CONTINUE TO COOL…WE EXPECT ANY RAIN TO GRADUALLY MIX WITH/CHANGE TO SNOW ACROSS HIGHER ELEVATIONS BY LATE THU …AND PERHAPS WITHIN VALLEYS BY THU NT OR EARLY FRI.
