On Monday, we are going to have mostly cloudy skies with a chance of PM rain showers and thunderstorms as a cold front begins to approach our area. Precipitation is then likely Monday night as this cold front works its way through our area. The precipitation Monday night is initially going to be in the form of rain in the lower elevations, but that rain will eventually mix in with and switch-over to all snow as the temperatures drop. We are then going to have decreasing clouds on Tuesday with scattered areas of snow around, generally during the morning, as this cold front leaves our area.
