How much snow is expected in Vermont on Thursday? Here’s what to know
Snow is expected in Vermont tomorrow, but the question is how much will end up falling.
Meteorologists are also saying that there could be a mixture of ice with the snowfall, which could contribute to hazardous road conditions by the time the storm is winding down on Thursday night.
“Clouds increase late tonight and early Thursday as low pressure centered over southern Canada pushes a positively tilted trough and surface cold front through the region during the day on Thursday,” the National Weather Service Burlington forecaster’s discussion said.
Here’s what to know.
When is the snow expected to start in Vermont?
The National Weather Service stated that the storm is expected to start on Thursday afternoon.
How much snow is expected, and where?
Here’s how much snow is predicted in Vermont on Thursday, Feb. 6.
This storm isn’t predicted to bring much snow to the state, but the National Weather Service noted that, “most locations (throughout the state) should see 1-2 inches with higher elevation and favored easterly slopes seeing 2-5 inches.”
How much ice is expected to fall?
The National Weather Service stated that during tomorrow’s storm, there could be some freezing drizzle falling.
“Just how much ice occurs will be subject to further timing adjustments and any moisture changes in the late afternoon,” the National Weather Service stated in its online forecaster’s discussion, adding, “Impacts from this ice is suspect as well given that it will be falling on snow rather than bare surfaces.”
How long is the storm supposed to last?
According to the National Weather Service, the storm should fizzle out late Thursday, though freezing drizzle is expected overnight.
Is there any more snow on the horizon?
Yes. The National Weather Service stated that while Friday is expected to be cold and windy in most areas of Vermont, another round of precipitation is expected for late Saturday night.
The online forecaster’s discussion stated, “Current guidance supports a colder and snowier solution across the region rather than a wintry mix (for Saturday) … but there is still plenty of uncertainty at this time.”
