Weekend weather: Cold, some snow, oh yes

CLEVELAND (WJW) — Not as frigid tonight, but still plenty cold. Temperatures will fall into the low 20s and teens by Saturday morning. A few clouds around and quiet. Any breeze will make it feel a bit colder.

The chance of snow will return this weekend. Spotty light snow showers will develop Saturday afternoon/evening. The coverage of snow will be a little higher in the primary snowbelt compared to the rest of the area. The chance of snow will ramp up when a fast moving clipper system swings through on Sunday. Scattered to numerous snow showers will develop Sunday afternoon and evening.

Snowfall accumulations will be light this weekend. Much of the area will see a coating to an inch of snow. Locally higher amounts of 1-2″ of snow will be found in the primary snowbelt.

If you’re headed to the Browns game on Sunday, just bundle up, it will be cold with a few falling snowflakes but no significant accumulation.

The start of workweek next week will be cold, with highs in the mid to upper 20s. Temperatures will go up a bit towards the middle of next week, but no big warm-ups are expected. Temperatures will stay below normal.

Another clipper system will move through towards the middle of next week. The highest coverage of precipitation will come Tuesday into Wednesday. Snow will change over to a wintry mix of rain and snow as temperatures warm above freezing.

Long range outlook for the first half of December per Scott’s outlook shows below normal temperatures across much of the northern half of the country. All 15 days to start December look to have temperatures below normal for the first time in 20 years!

Cold continues through mid-month. A small break around the 16-18th then the cold reloads the week before Christmas! Scott’s blog post highlights this.
