##snowbtv to show us your pictures. i was on the old instagram. >> lyndsay: it was pretty yesterday on the greenway. >> brody: the snow stuck a few minutes and melted long enough to take a few pictures. >> lyndsay: just a big fat flakes. thatthat is the snow we like, doesn't affect driving or bother anyone. not so much with the snow on monday. we have some changes on the way but as far as today is concerned, just going to be all about the cold, both today and tomorrow, sun will be up at 7:12, sun-down at 6:03. average high is 55. with highs in the mid 30s on average, we'll be about 20 degrees below average both today and tomorrow with the high temperatures that we will be seeing this weekend. there is the live look over uptown from our scott clark nissan honda hd tower cam this morning. the day today, clear day, actually. sun will be out, a bright, beautiful day, but it is going to be really cold, so futurecast starting the clock this morning going all the way through the afternoon and evening, yeah, no cloud cover whatsoever. that will change as we head in sunday, so not as sunny sunday, probably first thing in the morning, this is 6:00 a.m., and these clouds will be out ahead of the storm system that will be here on monday. so 2:00, yeah, pretty cloudy mostly everywhere, but any precipitation, any winter weather does hold off until after the day and really the pre-dawn hours of monday morning we're talking about before anything gets in here. here we are at 5:00 a.m. monday morning, again, this does look like for almost all of u begins at plain snow for at least a brief period, for some of us may only be an hour or two of snow, before a transition outside of the mountains to sleet and freezing rain. charlotte has that pink indicating a mix as early as the city. as far as kind of breaking down what to expect, still looks like snow, very early in the morning, again mainly be a brief period of snow for some of us. still changes over to first sleet and then freezing rain through the mid-day. but this is still ending as all rain for us by late afternoon, early evening monday, will finish out as just rain monday night and into tuesday morning. now, before we do see the change-over, could be enough to lead to issues, so with the snow forecast this is kind of including a snow, maybe snow-sleet mix, in the charlotte area we think generally it will be about an inch or less. 1-3 in the foothills, 3-6 in the mountains, that may end up be 4-8 in the high country as far as the snow is concerned. one thing i will say has changed yesterday is that it looks like the weather models are becoming more aggressive on the freezing rain and higher amounts of freezing rain especially from charlotte south, so say from a tenth to quarter inch of freezing rain will be possible before we do change over to that rain for monday night and into tuesday morning. so definitely going to be some messy travel as far as that is concerned for what we're expecting for presidents day, maybe some of you have it off. you won't have to worry about it but if you have school or work you will experience delays with that storm. okay, so it is gone by mid-day tuesday and finally we have a warm-up to look forward to, mid to later part of the week, finally have 60 degrees returning for us brody by next friday. >> sounds good. next at 5:00, we're marking black

morning, sun not up yet but once it comes up it will be over a clear sky, 32 in charlotte right now, right at the freezing mark, our feels like temp is 27, so yeah, feeling colder everywhere with a breeze that is out there and continued of windy in the mountains. arctic high is our weather maker term as we head in next week, we have our new winter storm, in the short term, just this arctic high, we showed you at the top of the newscast how there are sub-zero temperatures readings, across places like minneapolis. so with the center of the arctic high right over the upper midwest right now and northern plains and heads right in our direction, moving south and east, by the time we're talking about sunday morning. that is why for us, sunday morning with that high right on top of us will be the coldest that we get when we do get down in the teens. so for highs this afternoon you hold in the teens, for highs with that windchill advisory in effect for places like boone. maybe an early morning snow shower, more cloud cover for you, bet you will break out of the clouds more the further away you get from the mountains. more sun in the foothills, around freezing mark, a little closer, for places like area upper 30s, similar to the high yesterday, up 37, again, full sunshine, pretty much much in the piedmont and upstate. upper 30s getting close to 40 for our south carolina communities. lows tonight as we talked about, 15 in charlotte, for the overnight low, a very cold start to your valentine's day on sunday, as we start out in the teens, mid 30s for the afternoon. so although our hearts may be warm on valentine's day, our hands will be cold. with the temps only in the mid 30s for highs. that brings us now to monday. so we have that arctic high pressure in place to start off which is why as the storm moves information from the southwest, it is going to be cold enough to support a mix of snow and then ice. but as that storm gets closer, again, as we talk about the afternoon, this is 4:00 on your time stamp, we see more warm air drawn in from the south here with that approaching storm, and that is why we will eventually ice to rain by the time we talk about tuesdsd night our monday night, excuse me and in early tuesday morning by the time this storm does pull away. so, highs monday afternoon will get in the upper 30s and monday night, we also stay above freezing with rain to finish the storm out. 52 for tuesday afternoon and then finally we have a warm-up to talk about by the mid to later part of next week, temperatures well in the 50s, to near 60 by the time we talk about next friday. looks like a mild stretch to take us through the later part of next week. so we'll look forward to that i'm sure. >> brody: seems like the question you're looking at is what type of precipitation we get in the area? >> lyndsay: probably see all types. >> brody: all of the above. >> lyndsay: the question is what time do you change from snow to sleet to freezing rain to rain, that is more will affect the amounts of each that we see. so we're going to see all four, time do you change over from each which is the tricky part. >> brody: we'll check in with you
