Our Valentine's Day will feature a mix of rain and snow.

Good Tuesday and Happy Valentine’s Day. Our weather out there today isn’t the best in the world as we have some snow, mix and rain combining to put a little ugly in our sweet day. We have a fairly active weather pattern that will throw another storm our way by Thursday.

The short-term weather will feature some light snow early today across some areas. This could cause a few slick spots for the morning commute. Temps are marginal for much snow this morning and will then warm into the upper 30s and low 40s by this afternoon. That means anything falling from the sky will be in the form of a chilly rain.

Wednesday looks pretty good with temps heading back into the 40s with some early day sun possible. Clouds will quickly work in from west to east and some showers may develop across the west by evening. That will set the stage for more rain into Thursday as low pressure works across the Ohio Valley. The NAM shows what I’m talking about…

That’s a nice little drink of water and I can’t rule out a rumble of thunder across the south. Temps will make a run toward 50.

That system moves away as colder air works in behind the departing low and that air will gradually grow colder into the weekend. Many of the models are also trying their best to develop a storm across the southeastern states by Sunday and that may be something to keep an eye on. The GFS…

Have a Happy Valentine’s Day and take care.
