Why today? Well the National Weather Service has added the possibility for a slight chance of rain and snow showers this weekend. The official forecast for a 20% chance of rain / snow showers on Sunday, October 29th. This will be our first in the area since back in March of this year.
From the NWS discussion board:
.LONG TERM /Thursday through Sunday Night/...
Issued at 343 AM EDT Mon Oct 23 2017 The extended period will initially start out with dry conditions due to brief ridging over the area and slightly warmer temperatures in the 60s. However, the next system is progged to enter the Upper Midwest by Friday, increasing rain chances and lowering temperatures with an associated cold front. This colder air could result in some snow showers mixed in with lingering rain showers on Saturday night as a second upper low drops into the region. Highs will only top off in the upper 40s/low 50s on Saturday and Sunday with lows at the freezing mark on Saturday night.
