[ Friday, Feb. 14, 2003 ]
A wintry weekend is shaping up for the Northeastern portion of the US. Areas of low pressure will move out of the gulf states, through the Tennessee Valley, and into our region over the course of the weekend. The first wave will arrive later this evening, bringing the first round of snow. Snow will continue through for much of the day on Saturday. Another wave will develop early Sunday, bringing more snow to our area. The snowy conditions will last through Monday morning before high pressure regains control and starts moderating temperatures.
