Key Points – Wednesday, October 18, 2017:

Synopsis: Good Wednesday morning! Very little changes to the forecast today, a nice stretch of quiet weather and more mild temperatures as we head into early weekend before our well anticipated cold front sweeps from west to east bringing some light-to-moderate showers and a few rumbles of thunder possible on Sunday. The cold air will trail in behind this front bringing a chilly northwest wind in…this will likely bring some lake effect showers for locations to the north into early next week, however, the majority of next week continues the dry trend across the state. In today’s video we discuss the latest winter data released today as well, you won’t want to miss it! If you have any questions please let us know, have a blessed day! -Kirk
