Midweek storm system

A powerful weather system is set to impact the region from late Monday through Tuesday and Wednesday. With temperatures hovering around freezing, the timing and type of precipitation remain uncertain.

On Monday night, the system will bring scattered rain showers, which will become more widespread by Tuesday.

As colder air moves in, the rain will transition to snow, but the exact timing and snowfall amounts are still being monitored and will require further observation.
