 .DISCUSSION...
 Snow showers may deliver a dusting to up to an inch across the 
 lowlands overnight, with gusty winds and falling temperatures.
 
 Snow will be heavy at times in the mountains into Saturday morning. 
 Additional accumulations of 1 to 3 inches there could bring storm 
 totals to as much as 4 to 8 inches along the higher terrain. This 
 disturbance is also anticipated to stir up strong wind gusts along 
 the mountains for the start of the weekend, in addition to 
 dangerously low temperatures and wind chills settling overhead for 
 Saturday into Sunday. 
 
 A significant warm-up is forecast for early next week, with rain and 
 potential for localized flooding on the horizon for the middle of 
 next week.
