Warmth will end spectacularly

The warm spell will be ending late this week (Thursday or Friday) with lots of snow and severe thunderstorms across the nation ... though there's a pretty good chance we won't get either one. A strong low will wind up along a cold front in the middle part of the nation as Arctic air from Canada and warm air from the south collide. In our area, we'll probably see some gusty winds and rain on Thursday night and Friday as the front begins slamming through. Don't be surprised to hear some thunder, though, and don't be surprised to see a few flakes of snow later in the weekend after the front goes by.
