Although above normal temperatures are expected to continue Thursday, several wintry systems are headed our way later in the week. A strong cold front will push southeastward across the region Thursday night, bringing much colder temperatures and a chance for some very light freezing rain late Thursday night into Friday morning. A second storm system will begin lifting into the eastern Plains for Saturday and Sunday, possibly spreading wintry precipitation across the area. It’s still too soon to look at amounts or specific precipitation types, but the potential does exist for wintry weather to impact holiday travel around the area this weekend.
