Forecast Discussion:
Looks like old man winter is finally returning to the Northeast Kingdom.
Fortunately or unfortunately depending on the way you look at it the spring
like weather will be leaving us for this weekend. A cold front to our northwest
that drapes from the Quebec Province of Canada all the way down to Kansas, will
be pushing eastward over the next two days bringing us below average
temperatures for the weekend and some light snow as well. By the end of the
weekend another high pressure system will be building back in giving us warmer
temperatures and clear skies.
