Snow started in the Clifton area shortly before 5am and there is a coating on the ground as of 6am with a temperature of 21 degrees.

Today we will have periods of mainly light snow that should mostly be over by 4pm.  I am expecting around 2-4 inches of the white stuff.

Wednesday skies will clear and we will have seasonably cold temperatures.

Milder trend starting on Thursday and extending into the weekend, the warmest day appears to be on Sunday when temperatures will approach the 60 degree mark. Chances of rain increase from Friday night into next Monday morning.

Looking ahead to Christmas Day right now I will forecast partly sunny with a high near 40 degrees.  Also with this thaw coming this weekend I doubt we will have a White Christmas.
