Chance of 8+ Inches

Posted: 27 Apr 2019 06:42 AM

The featured map is of forecast probability that at least eight inches of snow falls over the next 72 hours from the Weather Prediction Center. This is an amazing map considering that the calendar says April 27th! Big snowfalls this time of year fall as the concrete kind with major threats to damaging trees and making impossible travel conditions. To accumulate this much snow, it needs to fall quickly to mitigate the impacts of warm soil temperatures and any filtered sunshine working to melt it.
