Forecast Discussion
The unusually meager amount of snowfall that has been recorded so far this winter will come to an abrupt end as the first significant snowstorm of this winter arrives. Light snow will begin this morning, and will intensify through the day. The heaviest snow is expected Tuesday night, with sleet possibly mixing in at times. Blustery breezes will cause wind chills to plummet to near zero degrees. At the conclusion of this Valentine's Day Snowstorm tomorrow, 10 to 15 inches of snow accumulation will have fallen in Happy Valley. The remainder of the week will be frigid with gusty breezes.
