    Charlotte and Rock Hill could still see less than an inch of snow from a second wintry mix system of the weekend late Saturday and early Sunday, according to the latest weather models from the National Weather Service in Greer, S.C.

    The first system dumped 2 to 4 inches of snow overnight 3,500 feet and higher in the mountains, according to the NWS.

    “Second storm late tonight brings a light mix of rain/snow east of the mountains,” NWS forecasters said on Facebook. “IF snow can develop, expect less than an inch along I-85.”

    Snow could fall from northeast Georgia through the Rock Hill area into metro Charlotte, north Mecklenburg and north and northeast into Concord, Statesville and Salisbury, an NWS map released Saturday morning showed.

    The system should clear from the region by Sunday night, according to the NWS.

  • From 60s to snow: Winter blast targets Front Range

    [ad_1]

    DENVER — Denver may see some snow this week, though the chances are higher for measurable snowfall in higher elevations, like the Palmer Divide.

    Before the storm arrives, temperatures will stay mild—about 5 to 8 degrees above average—on Tuesday and Wednesday, with highs in the low to mid-60s along the Front Range.

    The National Weather Service is forecasting that the storm will move into the Front Range Thursday, bringing freezing temperatures, rain, and snow.

    Denver will see mostly rain, but some snow could mix in late Thursday night into Friday morning. But the chances of accumulation in the Mile High City are about 20–30%.

    But the higher elevations are another story.

    The NWS says models show areas like the Palmer Divide have about a 60–70% chance of snow accumulation.

    The system will begin to weaken on Friday and move east with cooler-than-normal highs expected both days due to clouds and precipitation.
