The brighter colors the yellows, oranges and pinks are stronger winds. So what i want to show you at 6 00 a. M. The winds arent so bad.

Good news downtown with icy sidewalks, potentially starting to improve early tomorrow morning. By 9 00 a. M. This is the time when everybody just warms to above freezing. We are looking at breezy conditions at this point. If we have any damage from wind and ice, it it will be mid to late Morning Hours. The schoolday forecast for tomorrow we have delays coming in and will continue to get delays overnight because of the treacherous sidewalks and getting out the neighborhoods still slick. Main roads should be fine. Overnight, were mainly dry. And that will give crews a chance to get out and ton treat the roads. By recess it could potentially be indoors if the kids seem even school because its breezy and cold and maybe even icy spots at that point. Dismissal, part three mostly sunny skies. Improving weather throughout the day tomorrow. 7 00 a. M. , still icy. Its breezy. At least its sunny around the midday hours. Part three mostly sunny at 3 00. High of 44. It feels more like 30. Then we jump to tuesday. Its dry around the noontime hour, but after that a wintry mix moves in to the area. Well continue to track a wintry mix on into tuesday afternoon and evening. That could delay or slow down that evening commute. Rain on wednesday, and then snow is in the forecast on thursday. We could see some snow piling up. High of only 33.

I think a couple games we dont have that kind of start or jump. The effort is there. And its going to be a hard game and an important game for us. Its big points.

Spacexs falcon 9 lifted off about ten 50. Its carrying commercial communications satellites. Spacex says if all goes as planned, the satellites will be deployed about 30 minutes after liftoff. It should be out there already. Today i guess we dealt with the ice, but a lot more than that going on tomorrow. Yeah three big concerns tomorrow. Its going to be fog, icy surfaces and wind. Some of the fog could freeze leading to more icy conditions. Sidewalks will be treacherous tomorrow. Also be careful leaving your neighborhood secondary roads and winds become an issue. If we see enough ice on trees, this could bring down branches. Something to look for. Thats going to do it for us. Pirates final sports final is up next. Have a great night. Right now sports final, the caps quick on the draw against the leafs and the trade deadline. Sometimes you want to get younger, sometimes you want better. Its a matter of trying to get the mix.
