‘Longer-Duration’ Winter Storm Headed Our Way Sunday

Another winter storm is headed our way this weekend.

A cold front will move in on Saturday, bringing with it what the National Weather Service is calling “a longer-duration event,” with precipitation that will begin Sunday and not end until Tuesday morning.

The NWS currently is saying that we should expect a wintry mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain.

Strong winds also are expected throughout the storm, the NWS said.

The highs for next week will be in the 20s; the average high temperatures for the first week of March are in the upper 40s.
