What the weekend storm means for the Bloomington area.

Saturday's high temperature will be in the lower 50's. Can you believe it after this morning's low of 5 above? During Saturday night between 9pm and 11pm the rain will switch over to sleet and snow. It all depends on how fast the front arrives. The earlier it arrives, the more concern I have about us seeing a "Flash Freeze". A flash freeze means that the rain water on the ground freezes very quickly; not instantly but within a few hours. So, if you are out driving around between 12am and 2am, you should be very careful.

The skies clear out on Sunday and Sunday night we go down into the single digits again. The good news is that next week the temperatures will be closer to normal; highs in the mid to upper 30's with lows in the 20's.
