Although we are still many days away, our eyes are on the holiday weekend as a weather disturbance is expected to develop and bring the potential for some accumulating snow late Thursday and into Friday. As of now, it is too early to go into specifics but we will be monitoring this in the days to come.

In addition, we will be watching arctic air moving in as we head into next weekend. We could see high temperatures into the 20s and lows into the teens. This will be a result as we will see northwesterly flow, which will stream that arctic air down from Canada and into Wyoming through the Northern Plains.
